big problem with dragons.help please

Love them all!

I'm thinking about going with an all black dragon. Seems like it would be faster.

I am in love with that blue dragon Shannon!

that's my " too many kids in line and I have to hurry" dragon....lol

lol, it is NOT! it's amazing!
i use it and i love it, and so do the kids i use it on, so, win-win

Shandi has a good one... she actually starts it off like a horse ....
maybe she'll post hers - I had the pleasure to see it in real life so picture.. sorry

OMG guys they are all amazing xoxo thanks for all your help, think im going to keep practicing this one dragons are so popular

I paint lots of dragons. It is one of my favorite designs. If the line is really long then I paint a sunset with a black outline of a Chinese style dragon. The boys like that because it is named Ninja Warrior...I name all of the designs that I use. Then I also use a dragon mask design from silly farm. I use the blue shimmer arty cake instead of the green one they use. Girls and boys both like it and it only takes about three minutes to do. Sorry that I don't have the link but if you go to you tube or silly farm it is easy to find.

I use one from Heather on Sillyfarm also, and it's one of my most popular with boys and girls. Takes me about 30 seconds when I don't fill it in, maybe about a minute when I add the lines on the wings, and the eyes/horns on the head.

This pic was my first attempt, so it's changed some since =). Seems like it is always different every time!!

Here is the tutorial for it. I hope this link works...It is a really quick design. She shows it on a little girl. I always outline everything that I do and add glitter. I like to talk to the kids and spend some time with them but the actual painting itself is not hard and is very quick. And, any time that I use the arty cakes to do stuff like dinosaurs, or alligators, lizards...you know the usual stuff. I always get lots of wows even from the really simple things like this mask design. I think that they add a lot of punch to the simpler designs.

I do a quick easy green Chinese-style one:

I have to paint fast and well as most of my gigs are per face. These are two of my dragons, not very good at this step by step photo thing...here goes.

here are some on kids, hubby has a bad habit of taking a picture before I'm finished but I'm happy to have any pictures!

Thanks guys. These are very helpful!

They are all awesome! The great thing about dragons is no-one has seen one.... if you do a bad dragon and a child says so, just ask have they ever seen one?

LOL! That's true no one has ever seen a dragon (well, except a Kimono Dragon and that looks like a lizard)...

OK, here are my versions of Dragons (they're both quick and easy to do at parties & fairs):

Very nice!

I had a hard time figuring out dragons as well. This is what I put together so far. I like the designs with the dragons body in the middle and the wings on the eyes but I keep messing those up. Im never satisfied.
