The introduction of the Legend of Spyro series really got me very interested in the Spyro series again. Its story, the characters, and the worlds that revolve around the story trilogy really re-imagined the world of Spyro into a whole new light. I was a little sad that the next Spyro game of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure won't be set in the Legend of Spyro universe. Fortunately, the Spyro shown in the game reveals that he still a rare purple dragon and hints that he has been on many exciting adventures, and I knew that this Spyro shows that he never truly left my childhood.
My picture displayed above signifies my adoration for the Legend of Spyro series. This area in the Swamp really caught my interest, being Spyro's birthplace and the home of his foster family of dragonflies. When I finished this picture in June 2010, it took a while to capture the wet and swampy atmosphere that the wetlands had, yet the murky water still looked like it could use a little work. The giant mushrooms that tower over the wetlands like trees really fascinated me when I first played the Legend series, as well as the creativity of the creatures dwelling there developed by the imagination of the concept artists who worked on the games.
Shortly after the release of The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night, I began drawing my first set of Spyro Fan Art. Although in beginner's quality, the fan art was given positive feedback from the ones who watched my art, and I slowly improved my drawing quality as I proceeded to become fascinated by the reveal and arrival of The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon.
I will post more fan art of the Spyro series in the near future, and possibly my other projects that will made in my days of studying to become a Concept Artist, hopefully an artist listed in something I adore. Thank you for your time. :3
