How do you start your drawings, delicious? Do you start with a midtone, and then add highlights and shades, or start darkest, and work up to light? Do you start with an outline and then remove it? Jus' curious

DELICIOUS
Your work really is very nice and I can understand why you're using complementary colour schemes so much, buuuuut...
stop using complementary colour schemes so much.
They are very useful for bringing interest and contrast into a piece, but you seem to be using them as a bit of a crutch recently.
Check it: http://www.color-wheel-pro.com/color-theory-basics.html
I want to see you do some analogous colour schemes, and some more monochromatic, and if you're feeling really adventurous, try a triadic one! Even if you then still mostly use complementary colour schemes, you should at least make a point of understanding other approaches to avoid resting on your laurels.
It's cool if you still want to draw dinosaurs and dragons though. I will never be critical of an abundance of giant lizards.

Zeemort is a giant lizard.
Seriously though, Deli sprites extremely well, but then again, you must get that a lot.

Thank you guys
@Baegal: Usually start out with a really sketchy black and white drawing on my paint program, then I fill in the background and begin to apply the base colour. I then start adding the the shades and highlights and finally the highlights. Afterwards I just smooth everything out and apply the details. Thanks for the interest.
@Tachikoma: I do agree, however the past two pieces that used complementary colour schemes are the ones that I haven't yet finished. Most of my finished work are monochromatic. But I do agree, I should play around more for my next pieces. Thanks!
Anyways, maybe this recent WIP monster sprite (bottom right) will ease up all that.
and this is where I left off on that collab project that Dex and I where doing... I'm not sure if we are working on it anymore together, but I might as well just play with it once in a while and get it done.
