  " Bring me the whiskers of a dragon."
  " The whiskers of a dragon!!"  Just how do you suppose I do that! "
  " Well don't ask me! Your the hero, I just do the magic! And the magic you want needs dragon whiskers! "
  " I didn't even know dragons  had whiskers! "
  " Well apparently they must. I can't imagine the spell would call for the whiskers of a dragon if there were no such thing. "
  " You mean to tell me you have never even seen dragon whiskers! "
  " Do you think I would be standing here talking to you, if I had ever been that close to a dragon!!!"

I love the shape of the dragon's head! What does he use these long things for? Can he feel with them like insects do? I'm just curious!

I love the design of the dragon and the color..the way he just seems to be dipping in to say hello. The only critique I could give is that the eye looks a little more like hard plastic than a translucent reflective surface..the light doesn't seem to be shining through it, almost like it would through a round jewel, lighter away from the light source with the initial light reflecting on the side of the source. I don't think that made ANY sense at all. Blargh. (I took mine too far in my particular dragon eye and it's Too hard of a light, but the principle is there).. But ANYway.. this is a truly beautiful dragon - I love the way you've captured its grace..it looks like a fierce creature but also seems to possess wisdom.

He's wonderful Deanna and I love the expression you have caught in his face. His eye looks fine to me but you can alter the type of shine, by using a large air-brush set at 30% first and then the normal brush set small and 100% to create a bright light in the centre. The hard bright light in the middle make the shine look wet.

Well, this Dragon will certainly be able to find it's way through a dark forest...

Nice dragon! I like this style, with such a little touch of comic likeness.

Nice dragon! The wiskers are great! Don't see too many pictures of dragons who have wiskers. Very cool!
