Some dragon art looks like regular lizards but this is dragonish! Of course it is hard to combine a dragon and a beard but the whiskers don't look right to me. The style doesn't fit well with the dragon or they damage the dragonishness and adds catfishishness (I sure those are words!).

Thanks guys!
Finis, yep it does look odd with the whiskers. Exploring different looks now...


Edit:
Looking back it looks like a Chinese Dragon.

How about now?
Also which Dragon color looks best?
Anyone? :bananatyping:

Voting at the Steinie household selected the original "Festive" green.

dragon color - I like both...just needs to be a slight contrast with the beard or moustache

Needs a classic fu man chu =

Well I'm glad I picked the right color to finish. Mint Green it is!
However it is too late for the beard but thanks for all the suggestions.
This Challenge did get my creative juices flowing. The Challenge was indeed "Challenging" and really had me
brain storming.
I hope you like what I came up with.
Merry Christmas!!! :bananaclaus:

Funny! Good! Good expressions on them too. I like this beard better but I realize what the dragon Santa beard problem is in a general sense. Dragon Santas need hair on their heads.

Ah! You modeled the frame on the card!

To be honest my inspiration may have come from James and his
terrible idea of a poor innocent deer being eaten by a Santa Dragon. Little wiggling screaming Elves are
much more in the Holiday Spirit don't you think? :lol:

Your participation with the Challenges, also posting links, scripts, feedback, plugins, artwork,
helpful suggestions to others, and just general companionship with each other keeps U3DA alive.

Happy Holidays my friends.

Now who needs a Mint? :bananaclaus:
