Description
Here it is. This took waaaaay too long to finish. I thought it'd take a good week or so, but it ended up sitting around for a few months...anyway, this is probably the most detail I'm ever going to put in a picture (and it's not that much, compared to some). Enjoy.
Start-Finish: 3.5 months. Without hiatus time: 2 weeks
Mechanical pencil.

Excellent! The shading is astounding. And, it has that hasty-easy look, as though it took only a few minutes instead of a few weeks. 
Did you use different shading pencils, or just a #2?

Thank you!
Yup, condensed art. Like soup, but not quite as salty.
Just my mechanical pencil. I suppose I should use a 4B or something. I like those.

oh, yeah, i do play flute! but now i've been veering towards bassoon... it's realy big. and heavy if you don't have a seat strap...

OhmYGOSH.
I LOVE BASSOON.
YESSSSS! Fellow bassoonist! I miss mine, since I'm in LA. When did you switch?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well, after marching nand season this year.. soo i've played for a year now. it was the first reed instrument... well, TECHNICALLY second reed instrument i've played. and it's soo cool! i didn't know if i should play bassoon or oboe, so Mr. E decided for me. and i'm glad he made me play bassoon! especially since our oboes are soo... well, squeaky. LONG LIVE THE DOUBLE REEDEDNESS!!!!!! yay!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Whooooo, you had to march with a bassoon? That's crazy! We don't have a marching band here (we're lame like that). But when we do march, in May, the bassoons don't march. It sucks
I like oboes, though ;_; Oh well, bassoons rock. I like them betterrrrrr.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well, i didn't march with the bassoon *thank the lords!!!!!* i used my flute for awhile there, then i went to colorguard. GUARD ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!! but BAND ROCKS TOOOOO!!!!!!!! but not when you have to carry lotsa instruments around...

Ah, I see
I always did percussion, because I forgot how to play clarinet....
Oooh, very cool! I carried the banner this year. We're a lame band.

Cool! it was really cool being in marching band this year, cause we played in the seahawk stadium at a half-time show and held the big banners at... well, i can't remember what it's called, i'm not a very big fan of football. but it was also at the seahawk stadium and i think it was like the beginning of... well, i got to be on tv. and that's cool. even if i look like an ant because they had to get the banners we held, but i was still on tv. i'm REALLLLLLY sorry if i sound like i'm bragging, i'm just excited...
but you can't be a LAME band! any band is cool! and plus, you carried a banner! awsome!!!!!!!!

Oh MAN. I really wish I didn't move here. I don't like California nearly as much as Washington. Grr.
I wish I could have seen that! It sounds so fun!
No, it was LAMENESS. It was the LAMEST march ever. The banner was also the lamest banner ever.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
awwwwwwwwww..... that doesn't sound too fun.... *sniff* now i feel bad... well, to look on the brighter side of things, at least you HAVE a band. just think if you didn't. actually, don't think about that. that's sad.
i wish you didn't move too! maybe then you'd still... well... of COURSE you'd BE here. i'm an idiot. but then we could go and do lotsa things together and share artwork and have fun in the same band (that is if you'd still go to newport)! yay!
oh yeah, i just remembered something stupid. the bellevue school district's thinking of(well, is) changing Tyee's name to Newport Junior High!!!!! i swear, that's just realllllllly stupid of bellevue.

Aww, don't feel bad! I'm in an extracurricular symphony, anyway.
My parents won't let me join band next year, because they think it's useless. I'm so mad about that. Oh well, I still have my youth symphony.
Yeah...I kinda wish I stayed.
WHAT THE HECK
JUNIOR HIGH? THAT IS THE LAMEST LAME THAT HAS EVER LAMED.
I MEAN REALLy. That is a TERRIBLE idea. Whatever possesed them to think of THAT?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, Bellevue needs to think that one over. probably some other things too... like CHANGING THE DAIRY QUEEN ON NEWPORT HILLS TO A HERFY'S BURGERS!!!!!! huff huff... sorry, i'm still a little mad at Bellevue for that one. but they DO sell seafood there... oh well, you give and take a little.
but seriously, it seems like every Dairy Queen in Bellevue is being demolished for no good reason. i just saw another one today being demolished, along with the dance studio and store nearby... *sniff* and that's where i got all my dancing stuff! WAAAAAAAAHHHH! *sits in corner sucking thumb*
well at least you still have your youth symphony... hmmm, i think i heard that somewhere...oh well. but that's still sad! Band rocks! it's sad to hear it being demoted in such a sad way... ok! i'm being WAY too sad here! i gotta think of something happy here! hmmmm.... Oh, we- no, that's not too happy. well, at least we have the internet! it makes me happy!
as i say again, i'm sad you didn't stay though... but wait, where do you live again? maybe i'll meet up with you someday! yeah, i'll meet up with you when my mom gets her book out, and we get enough money to travel more... that'd be nice.

....EWW. I liked Dairy Queen! It has the word Dairy in it!
Wheee, internet!
Yeah, I want to go baaaaaack....
Don't worry, I'm going to be visiting Newport. I definately will. I think I saw you the last time I visited, in December.
But all of you guys are up there! I can't not go!

very textured ^_^
I remember when we were trying to think up of ideas for this sketch!
Well, seems like it turned out pretty good ^_^ All it needs now is a background and maybe a stroy behind it..

Yah, it took me forever O_o;
Yeah....I'm too tired to think of one right now. How about this: His name is Knaar, and he wanders the earth eating things. Yumyum.
I suppose it does....I dunnoooooo.....can't thiiiiiiiiink....

Hellooooooo
I upped the brightness and the contrast a little bit so that it would stand out more. I also erased all that smudgy stuff
Thaaaaaanks!

WOW!!! 
Love the bamboo-lookin' horns, an' the gnarled, root-like skin. The underbelly almost looks like weave. The facial structure rocks, I like the taunt skin round the mouth, the crooked, stick-out fangs, and the sweeping motion of the tongue. Tha' eye is blowin' me away, I dunno how you got it to look so... dimensional, but it jist totally rocks. How the horn curves around the brow is neat-o. ^_^ Lovely pic all round, mate!!

And get snapped at by his teeth?
The under-belly took me the shortest amount of time to do, while the top half of the neck took me SO long. Bleeeeeh.
I'm not sure what he eats with teeth like that O_o;; And it looks like the skin got stripped off the mouth
Yeah, the eye turned out a lot better than I thought it would. I think the highlight brings it out ^_^
It took me the longest time to figure out what to do for the horns. I couldn't think of anything at all for a few weeks
Thank you!

Not really...I drew that part in on the plane to Seattle. That took most of the 2 hour flight
Nope, no relation.
