EDIT: I fixed his chin. SA is annoying. It wouldn't let me re-upload. Sigh.
Taro DOES NOT belong to me.
He belongs to Kaci Hill--a FANTASTIC author. She's currently co-authoring a book with Ted Dekker and someday soon she'll publish her novel/novels regarding Taro ---> the character I've painted.
Some insight if you're interested: Taro's a quiet-to-himself kinda guy. He's in his early twenties. He falls in love with a lively woman named Desiree. And--oh yeah--he's a dragon. (Hence the scales.) The painting was planned poorly, I do admit. Taro's scales are on the right side of his face. I slathered shadows in the wrong place...doh.
Technically, Taro's skin is supposed to be dark, but the light source tripped me up. If anyone has suggestions, don't hesitate to give me some advice. =)

I've had the re-upload problem too for like three of my pieces. I end up just having to delete the original one and upload the new one.
