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.

"Command this is Sabre 3."

"Welcome on station Sabre 3, Tyrrant and Ghost squadrons just bit the dust. Hope your loaded out."

"Roger command, five hundred pound bombs, a full load of cannon rounds and a desire for vengeance."

"Good to hear, form up with Overlord squadron at ten thousand feet. You guys will get a crack after the Enterprises Carrier air wing expends their ammo. Recommend you aim for the head and watch out for return fire once you are within three thousand feet of the target. Pull out immediately after bombing run to clear the skies for incoming cruise missiles."

"Roger command, tell the Navy flyers to leave something for me."

Distant-Sky-King [2008-07-08 04:00:59 +0000 UTC]

Sorry for the delay in commenting... dial up is such a bitch.

I've never seen you draw dragons before; I"m very impressed. The lighting on the scales is fantastic and the anatomy is also good, save for the snout, though that is probably due to a difference is style preference.

The only thing that really bugs me is the top of the Crysler building... assuming that is what it is that is on fire in the background. The arcs at the top are made of stainless steel, though asthetically pleasing, it is also very durable (the Gateway Arch being an ideal example) It would have soot and such on it, but the parts unaffected by the flames would still have their sheen to them. It looks like some of the panels are too dull.
