Fierce Dragon Head in Profile With Spiky Mane

A dragon's head is drawn in side view, facing left with its mouth open wide. Rows of sharp, jagged teeth line the upper and lower jaws, and a long thin tongue curls out below the snout. A pointed horn sweeps up from the brow, and a long, flowing mane of narrow spikes fans out behind the head. The cheek and neck are covered in overlapping scales, drawn as small curved sections that get larger toward the back. Thick outlines keep the shapes easy to follow, which suits older kids who can handle a bit of detail. Try coloring the scales in two or three shades of green or blue, then switch to warm oranges and reds for the mane spikes so the head stands out.
