The Egg Thieves

Description

Finally sort of done... at least I gave up for now O.o

...and I realised the scanner here cannot handle A3 paper, so I used my little crafty mind and tried to scan it in two parts, then mend those together....
...which kinda failed since the line in the half can be seen friggin' well! :'( And the scanner also killed the colours... -_-;

Done with coloured pencil yet again, 2008 Sept 2.

A D&D styled Bronze Dragon and two half-orcs.
The half-orcs are trying to flee with a precious dragon egg, and even though they are nearing the exit of the lair, probably they won't be able to evade the dragon's lightning breath.
Bronze dragons, while standing up for justice and good, and loathe killing, do anything to protect their eggs and offspring. This mother dragon just caught one of the trio of thieves under her paw, and is about to unleash its most devastating attack at the two runners - a bolt of lightning conjured from deep within her throat.

I had a looot of trouble figuring out how the lighting of the whole scene should be, and I am still not completely satisfied with it. I also experimented with the colours a bit; I never really used this turquoise-teal kind of colour before, so I gave it a try. I kinda like that colour for the lightning. And in case the guy looking back looks queer around the leg, his right shin is showing. He's trying to jump over some rocks... meh, I hope it looks clear enough. *frowns and glares at scanner*

As always, criticism is well appreciated!

Edit: Tried to fiddle with the colours on the scanned/PC version, in real life the pic is more green-ish and the half-orcs seem to show better...
