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.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now THAT is a fuckin' dragon. Right on, man. That entire piece is amazing. You paint (no pun intended) the figurative image of a dragon being Mr/Mrs. Doomsday pretty well. At first glance the face actually reminded me a bit of Godzilla, but it's more angular and flat than that thing's fat cheeky grill. Oh and you can't get enough props for the fire-nuke blast. I feel sorry for whoever was in that building (the whole city for that matter). Always a big fan of your stuff; I really hope you keep on goin'. Give me more!

Ok - one cool thing is that I can always recognize a picture as being yours. Even from viewing it on the home page without hovering over it.
This picture is very cool and I love the concept/background story as well. I think there is a lot of room for improvement on this picture simply in terms of creating the shape and features of the creature. Mostly the shoulder and arm closest the viewer.
(I love the building with Vitaly S. Alexius on it.)
