Description
The dragon is a mythical creature of which some interpretation or depiction appears in almost every culture worldwide. The physical description and supposed abilities of the creature vary immensely according to the different cultures in which it appears. However, the unifying feature of almost all interpretations is it being a serpentine or otherwise reptilian monster (or at least possessing a serpentine/reptilian part or trait), and often possessing magical or spiritual qualities and most likely bringing doom in apocalyptic movies.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ya know, to this day your color schemes are so simple and underdetailed, yet they STILL look good with your work! It's one of the things that defines your work.
The rest of this piece also is awesome. Great job.

Insane amount of detail! I love this one... the dragon does seem a little flat to me... but the awesomeness all together makes up for it... I love how can see for miles and miles...

Nice, very different from most dragons I see. One critic though, the perspective of the buildings in the foreground seem off when I compair them to the dragon. Might just be my eyes decieving me again though.

Good deviation, but...
1. His muzzle - ouh
2. Imagine two white houses. One of them is burning. Look at the walls of second house - are they white? Nope, they're orange, because of the light and colours of flames. Where is this kind of reflections in your painting?

That is amazing, it's also a very dark and creepy picture too if you try to imagine if something like that was really happening.

Did you paint this on top of a regular picture of a city?
