This was basically an ink drawing given a quick colouring on the computer - 'just to see what it'd look like; cheesy lensflare and all.' I like the sky; it pretty much establishes the mood I was going for.

ooooooooooo ...pretty! *just kidding, I'll give you a better criteque then that!* I like the way the inking sets off the coloring job. It has a nice style and feel to it. One thing that I think could make it better would be to have the dragon less scratchy and more filled in, but that's just being picky! good job!

Nice colouring, I like how the ink lines are still visible. And even the lense flare doesn't spoil the picture 12

Not cheesy at all. I've seen pics where the artist just uses the lense flare because they like the effect, but this makes it look real, not all fake like others. The sunset, or sunrise, if you want to get technical, like the dawn of a new era or something equally stereotypical, is spectacular and the inking incredible.

Your backgrounds are fantastic, and your instinct with color incredible.

Oh! I do like the color scheme you used! That would take me about a million years to do on a comp, I'm THAT incompetant! 1! But anyway! The Dragon ROCKS! 12

I must say, I'm completely lost about this lens flare thing. *fumbles and pushes hat back on head. Raises a bushy eyebrow* But technology aside, It looks like you were camping in my backyard that night. Indeed *squints* those are my excellent mountains, and that has been the disposition of the weather lately. *sighs* Quite moody, if you ask me. I'd like to see a few more of your pictures, hmm? *shuffles off*

Still my favorite 2 Always makes me wonder from where the dragon returns. Maybe I should write a story about it.By all means, do so. I usually illustrate stuff I've written or am planning to write, but that doesn't mean the image is restricted to a single text.

Really nice feel to the pic. I agree with the above comment. This pic does make you wonder what is going on with each of the characters. Very nice.

This reminds me of a piece of concept art I saw for Reign of Fire. The reviews said it stunk but I loved it. Like its said before, the mood in tis piece is great!
