CALE GARDENER - ProjectDragon Fanart

Hi guys, I’m happy to share my new work with you!

Project Dragon really left a strong impression on me ✨❤️ I absolutely loved its visual style and atmosphere. While working on this character, I tried to analyze existing works by other artists. Fortunately, I found many amazing pieces to use as references.

I'm happy to bring this work to a certain level of completion. Of course, everything could always be polished further, but I truly enjoyed the process and I’m satisfied with the result for now. Special thanks to my friends and my wife for their helpful feedback and advice.

Based on a concept by Camille Peyrebere for Phoenix Labs
