Monday is the dragon.

Heh. Feed a dragon when it's small, and you need a freaking FORKLIFT to feed it by the time it grows up! Cute.

[minoanmiss]

I'm so glad that forklift came through. I spent more time drawing it than any other element of either picture.

[corylea]

That makes sense, since it's very different from the sort of thing you usually draw. :-)

It’s Clifford The Big Green Dragon!

[minoanmiss]

BWEE, kinda. She definitely rides him to meetings. :)

[darkmarcy]

This is adorable! I love the grown-up dragon, waiting patiently but clearly excited as there's a lil flame puff! So cute <3

[minoanmiss]

Monday is well trained but definitely excited. :D (Eee, I'm especially glad you like this!)

[sabotabby]

HAha love it. It screams for a children's picture book.

[minoanmiss]

I need to work on likenesses more -- it was really difficult to get both images of the princess to resemble, and they don't quite match.

[stultiloquentia]

Ahahaha this is amazing. I love everything about the dragon's body language.

[minoanmiss]

*beams* Thank you. :)

There's a filk song, one that I haven't heard for a while. This person owns a dragon and, of course has to make money to feed it. The verses progress from dragon for loan to dragon for rent to dragon for lease to dragon for sale to, eventually, dragon for free. "And I don't like the way that he's looking at me". Maybe he could hear its stomach rumbling? (:-/

"Dragon for Sale" by Ben Newman

Link and mp3 at Ben's Songs

This is wonderful.

[annonynous.livejournal.com]

Huh. Written by a local filker whom I know. But then he has written so damn many songs! I didn't remember it because the person I was used to hearing perform it (at the Garden Circle of Songs, not a MASSFILC) wasn't Ben (and has long since moved way out of the area). Thanks for the memory jog.

I adore the princess, dressed in her princess gown and headgear, light-heartedly driving a forklift full of treats to her eager pet dragon! :-)

[minoanmiss]

I really enjoyed coming up with her, yeah. :)

[acelightning]

I hope she's wearing a hard-hat concealed under her hennin :-D

[minoanmiss]

Look closely -- she is!

[acelightning]

BWEEEE! :-)

[mific]

That dragon is positively squeaking with anticipation! Lovely!

[minoanmiss]

Yay, its bounce is evident! \o/ Thank you! :D

[mekare]

Awww this made me smile.

[minoanmiss]

Then I did as I intended. :D

[chochiyo_sama]

You should do a children's book about a Princess and a Dragon. Something that makes people smile. You are a natural. You could possibly be the J.K. Rowling of the picture book crowd. Wouldn't that be great! Then we could say, "We knew her when...."

[minoanmiss]

Oh my goodness, you have made me blush. :)
