How do you draw chicken feet, Fanci? I'm great at chickens, but their feet look like blobs.

I don't draw a lot of chicken fee

Grervyn the dragon. A little rough on the edges, because I still am having trouble with the fill bucket, (and when I try to correct my mistakes it looks weird, but I did follow some of Taming Master's advice.

I can see the improvement! (^-^)b

Yeah eventually all the 22 mixed up layers began to make it impossible to fix little cosmetic mistakes. Because I put the line art on top, but the fill bucket still filled the whole picture, you could just see the line art on top.
So then I just duplicated the line art layer many times to make the color layers, making it become so confusing-mobile version. As you may be able to see, I used the multiple function to add shadow. It worked well. The head was hard to fix, because it was sideways on the neck. I eventually just left it.

The bucket settings can be set to "Layer" or to "Canvas". You might have it on "Layer".
Try to name each layer, that makes it so much easier and way less confusing. :3

You can erase with protect alpha on, it will erase anything on that layer though.

Oh. :/ I'll probably just stick to clipping then. XD

But it is on Layer!

Then switch it to "Canvas"; it might fix your problem. :3

Transparent background, Layer fill bucket, line art on top. For some reason bucket worked on canvas though.

Oh, good. ETA it did.

 

[TamingMaster]

I'm glad. :3

I didn't get around to coloring it, but here's the Iscariot guppy.
The 'guppies' are the younglings, and the only trustable companion. They are blind, using whiskers to feel around, resulting in lots of headbutt cuddles. :3
Kind of the opposite of a frog, it starts out on land, then morphs into a creature of the sea (adult not pictured). The holes in it's chest are actually large nostrils, lungs for now, then changing to gills. It looks like tough bone at first, but actually feels a lot like a horse's muzzle.
No teeth in guppy stage.

I thought that they would be vital for some kind of job in this fantasy land, but I couldn't figure out what. I thought maybe cave and mining work, since their other senses are heightened because of blindness (especially sense of smell).
They tell you not to get attached. When they morph (which is gradual, so you won't know the day or hour it will take to the sea) they develop eyes, fangs, and swimming features. Once they can swim, they will try to drag you to the water, too, drowning their rider. It is said that, even if you free them before the time, some come looking for you to take you to a watery grave. This is why they are named after the great betrayer: Judas Iscariot.
