[edit] I feel the need to edit the title and make a little note here. I know this isn't what Maori tattoos looks like, and I really hope I didn't offend anyone by the title. The tattoos just reminded me of Maori design, so that's why I names him such. Apologies for any confusion.

I've been dying to color this sketch for ages, so in preparation for FC I dug it out of my piles to color it up! The designs I added to his body reminded me of Maori Tattoos, thus the title. He's supposed to be a white dragon with tattoos, but the pink feet, hands and nose make him look a little fleshy! XD That's ok, I still like him. I added some red Swarovski crystals to snaz him up a little more and make the original look really cool.

This 10" X 12" original piece will be for sale at the Further Confusion art show!
