Tag As FavoriteComment		This is the first picture I did with my illustrators' inks. I love those inks! Their texture is just so smooth to work with... I drew this for the Bifrost women and dragons project.

Great pic. What's bifrost, though?

Awesome!---I'm not used to seeing this in Elfwood, but now since we have the Sci-Fi merge I guess I can get used to it. I like the perspective. --Makes this dragon look huge.

I love this! I agree, the woman does seem very powerful, but in a "I'm a free spirit and can't be tied down" kinda way. The dragon is mechanical, yet it still reminds me of Falcore from Neverending Story.

Hi Margaret! What a great pic, I love the mechanical dragon and the woman seems so...powerful, like she could control the world. I'm not sure if I'm saying this right but this piece is really full of energy...I love it!

That texture is nice indeed! It looks a lot like a picture-book illustration. Nice feeling of space with all that open sky. The dragon design is very good too - to me, this looks like a little girl's fantasy, like her favourite toy coming to life in a manner of speaking.

Who is Falcore? Well, first of all, it's spelt "Falkor," although "Falcor" is just as correct.

Falkor is the Luckdragon (a doglike, furry race of flying wingless dragons that bring good luck) who comes to the aid of Atreyu the Hunter in "The NeverEnding Story," to the aid of Atreyu and Bastian Balthazar Bux in "The NeverEnding Story II: The Next Chapter," and to the aid of Bastian in "The NeverEnding Story III: Escape from Fantasia." Anyone who says your dragon reminds him/her of Falkor is actually paying you a high compliment!

I think the woman is leaning a bit to much back: there is no tension on the strings, so she is leaning on air!? But the composition and texture of the dragon are wonderful. It gives me a innocent and happy feeling, because of the open space.
