This is a colored version of the "Battle Ready Dragon" picture. It helped me figure out Daust's true (literal) colors for future reference. Though, I sorta cheated on the knives, what with making them the same basic colors as Daust and all...

Eh...at least it's done.

EDIT: I used Photoshop to overhaul the picture and, considering the fact that this is my first time actually using Photoshop to color a picture, I'm quite pleased with the results. I'll certainly have to look into some coloring tutorials so that I can make my pictures stand out a bit more. I like the little touches of shiny, though. I think they truly help Daust to seem more alive.

Photoshop Tools Used to Color This Picture:
~ Polygonal Marquee Tool
~ Paint Brush
~ Paint Bucket
~ Len Flare (Filters > Render > Lens Flare)
~ Dodge tool
~ Burn Tool

EDIT AGAIN: Okay, I went a little crazy with the dodge and burn tools to make Daust feel more "realistic" and less flat. Hopefully, that's what turned out happening.
