Detail of the thing's head to show the scales on his lips. The bridle is to keep him from eating too much. See how it holds his mouth shut? Most Americans should wear these, me included.

How large is this picture? I generally work small but I can imagine the detail I could do with a much larger canvas (so to speak). Now if I only had a studio...sigh.

:-) Melody Pena replies: "Big. I don't remember exactly but something like 18"x22""

How long did this take?? Ill be back waiting for ur answer.... Thanks.

:-) Melody Pena replies: "Sorry! I didn't see your question..This probably took me about 30 hours. I did it a long time ago, and my memory its terrible, but that is about how long a large drawing like this usually takes."

This creature is awesome!! I really like him, your llama scares me though. 2

:-) Melody Pena replies: "Heehee. Demon llamas aren’t dangerous. You may need to wash your hair after petting them though. Thanks for visiting
here!"

*stares* Okay, this is a stunning creature! Almost looks like a mix between equine, griffin and...something else. Even as ’simple’ as the bridle is, it’s stunning! The detail on the mouth is amazing and I love the texture of the fur! As ’straggly’ as it looks it looks like it would be soft as silk to the touch!

Wow, he looks like a horse-llama-vampire-lizard-thingy. I like the sacales on the lips and his eyes.
