Pretty! I love the colors, especially in the dragon. I don't know...I saw it right away. Maybe I'm just extra-perceptive? 1 Anyway, congrats on Mod's Choice, this is amazing!

How did you do it?it's amazing. i like the dragon best^^

61 Michael A. Sauve replies: "  Thanks. I scanned in the picture I drew in color pencil. Very incomplete, then slowly started adding more color and texture thoughout the piece. The dragon is mostly using the blur tool. He is what took up most of my time. Making him visible, but not so-so visible was tricky... Thanks again!!"

Amazing what you can do with a computer. Would be interesting to post your original drawing so we can see the origins of the concept

I really love this picture. It is not only beautiful, but very inspirational as well. You start asking yourself questions. Who lives in a castle like that? Who built it? Why? How?
Really great work, keep it up!

1 Michael A. Sauve replies: "Well thank you very much for your support. I am happy to hear it sparked so much imaginative thought behind it."

I just love it! I love the castle (it is pretty cute), the sky behind is just beautiful, and the dragon is really smart. Great pic!

I like how the road seems to rise up off the ground like a ribbon in the wind. I also like the stars and how the base of the castle is sort of spaceshippy. It’s like it could rise up and fly away at any moment.
