A dragon perches on a rock before a sunset... or maybe sunrise. Whichever.

So, this is a sketch that got way out of control... It's a horribly cliché image, but I think every artist is allowed a cliché from time to time.

I saved allthe steps that went into this picture in a slideshow!

That’s a really cool picture! I was looking at your slideshow as well and I am very impressed how such a actually messy and just some black stripes can become such beautiful and breathtaking picture

The sunlight filtering through the wings is fantastic!
I can see him saying, "If you take you step closer, I’ll do you a favor and remove your face for you!"
