A marker, ink, and paint pen drawing of a winged, horned purple mechanical dragon made of riveted plates on a blank background. There is a line showing the ground, but there are no shadows. The dragon is facing left, has articulated legs, small purple webbed wings that are partially opened, and curly horns. They have purple jewels running along their spine, and their short tail is curled up in front of their back legs. They have a pink glow in their eyes and nostrils. All the rivets and screws are detailed in gold paint pen, as are the wing ribs. The dragon is standing rather awkwardly, and has an unnervingly friendly smile, with white human-shaped teeth, not fangs. The head is very upright and pulled slightly back, like they are trying to look cute and harmless. (I don't think they are cute and harmless. Approach with caution.)

So, yesterday’s dragon started as a scribble in my diary (I need to move a sketchbook into the bedroom), then got filtered through a 19thC art reference. Today, I tried to draw it cute.
IT’S SO MUCH MORE TERRIFYING.😱😂😂💀💜
