<- Lurker. But I've been making a TF RPGmaker game for a while, and have been drawing up some art for it so it wouldn't just be another "switch the base actor portraits for a TG" game. Anyway, what are some good colors for this character (post TF). These are just some base colors - I haven't added shading or textures (scales) yet. But what are good colors for a feminine dragon (Hair, Scales, Underbelly/Neck, Eye Color). I'm not a fan of red since it's pretty monstrous and generic. I was thinking white scales, but that turned out a bit bland.
If any experienced TF artists might respond, what technique of adding scales would you use w/o making the drawing look too busy or masculine? I found overlaying a "stain-glass" pattern in photoshop to be okay, but it's a bit distracting. Is there another technique like adding a few lines in certain places to make the viewer believe there are scales all over without pockmarking the drawing?
