'Your wings are lovely,' I finally told him, 'but they're utterly absurd. With all those joints and struts, they can't even be folded away properly, much less provide the kind of lift a creature your size would need for powered flight.'

The dragon's flat, snakelike face was as expressionless as ever, but somehow the arch of his neck or the glitter of his dark eyes conveyed a certain tolerant amusement. 'That's not what they're for,' he said gently.

Hehe, you should read "The Flight of Dragons" by Peter Dickinson. It is a book compiled with theories and sciences on how dragons could have existed and exactly how their bodies were ran and the chemicals involved and what-not. It also explains their disapearance and how the breathed fire. I was reminded by your quote at the top. Excellent shading and the colors are magnificent! Keep up the good work.
