I'm submitting this for critique. Before I paint my dragon/jhereg I wanted to try to make scales with just paint instead of painting each one individualy (too insane). The wing is fine, it's exactly how I wanted it to come out, but the body scales are a little iffy.

I used both tablet plug-ins, the space bar nearly placed all the way to the right and tried different strokes, some circular, some cross hatching. Some paint, some burn and dodge, I'm not sure.... Help would be most welcome and wanted. ;)

Did you try the space bar jobber with a larger size brush?
Sweetcell (Apr 26, 2006)
Yep, first I blocked the dark base color with a larger size brush then gradually lessened the size of the brush and moved the space bar further and further to the right to get the gradation of little pebbles, but I was wondering if anyone knew another technique. I won't work on my piece till I get it right.
