The same dragon that has conquered the top of the Sacred Mountain is now on his way to fetch something to eat. After all, the King must stay healthy to defend his 'crown'. He is rest assured that the other dragons have enough honor in their minds to allow him this replentishing of strength... (or so he hopes, at least).

hmmm... you seem to do the 'human bodied' dragons... not that that's bad ;P From a scientific view they'd have a man-ish torso if they walked upright

I don't know why everyone thinks the wings are too small, It doesn't matter for a dragon, mabe he's using magic to help with his flight. For a fantasy art gallary there alot of people that are to scientific.

This is cool too. I think my next drawing will be of a flying dragon. You come up with some really cool poses with your dragons. Good work.

This and the other pic are very good but this one is the best. there appears to be motion in the pic and you can see the effort of taking off in the pose

You are da man! Seriously though, you've gotta be grandmaster dragon-drawer. I just got finished doing my very first dragon and I'll definetly take notes for next time.

this is no doubt the best pencil drawing of a dragon i've ever seen. the dynamic pose , the unusual perspective, everything is perfect.

well gotta admit that's one dragon who looks like he stays in shape - no loafing around on a pile of gold for him ... ~12

I've always thought that dragons have hollow bones like birds, but are stronger and more durable. I admit, the wings might need to be a bit bigger though. I find it interesting that you gave him a "Six pack" or something like that.
