I'm looking for someone who can turn this image I have created into a realistic looking creature...now I am not sure if any of you guyz can do that, or if you are just able to do banners. I don't have a program that can do it, but I do use photoshop..

p.s- if you need a different version to work from just let me know..ex: outline, ect.
(and yes it is my drawing I am not stealing:))

Welcome to WebArtz, first of all.

I have worked on your image but I'm having a hard time trying to define what you mean by realistic. If you're looking for 3D rendering, that's not my area. The closest thing I would suggest since you have Photoshop is to try using the "transform" tool - it will allow you to mess with the perspective and distortion if this is what you mean by realistic.

Here's a tutorial that helped me out -

(I'm not 3D rendering but thanks for the link I wasn't aware of the "transform" tool. My photoshop isn't professional or anything its just enough to make a what I did.)

I'm not exactly sure what its called but the (realistic) graphics like in the movies... avatar, star trek, clash of the titans, ect. Do you know anyone that can do something like that? Well if you can't or you don't know if anybody else that can, don't sweat!
have fun w/it.... I'd loooooove to see whatever you make!

The links below are pics of realistic dragons (examples, I do not own them)

p.s- can be a painting/airbrush or whatever you like, I'm not very sure what you guyz can do...

I'm excited!

This is the best I can do at the moment. As I said this isn't my area, sorry.





Here's a quick illustration of what I've tried to do -

I started with a plain 2D blue circle and added rings of the same color in different shades to create a gradient. The smudge tool can help in mixing the colors. For the drop shadow, I just blurred the latter half and added some blur effects. The rest in terms of patterns and other effects is up to you.

Also if you want I can point you to someone who may be able to help you.

Thanks for making the picture I really appreciate it! You must of worked really hard on that but I hate to say it wasn't exactly what I wanted. if you dont mind, could you point out the person that may be able to help me.
thx, Dawn...

No problem, I still gave it a try to help you. I sent you a pm of how you can get a hold of him. He's a terrific artist and a nice guy to talk to, so it's worth a try to see if help you out.

Here is some of his artwork:
