Thanks Squish ^^. That was a very rough sketch of that woman, I'll post up the better one when it's all finished.

Chez, thanks. And no, I didn't use visual aid for that, but I am around roses often. I grow them and all, they're probably my favourite flowers. But nah, I didn't sit down with one infront of me and draw that.

And yeah, that was pencil on that dragon. I tried to be more careful with that one, slightly more realistic shading. Nice to know it worked to some effect.
