I really like the colours used for this, and how you've done so well to stick to just 11. The best thing for me is the way you've got the light reflecting off of the creature's body, it really gives it a great sense of depth and texture and ties in the darker colours with the lighter ones.
I also like he generally flame design, although it seems a little.. almost stiff in parts, perhaps some smoke would give it a more lively sense of movement, although I do know that flames are a touch thing to mimic at the best of times. Another suggestion would be to look for a photo of a fire-breather, as I think the movement of the flames would help to give you further ideas on how to make that shooting movement more dynamic.
Something that I feel is missing more than anything, is a background actually, I realise there's nothing especially wrong about it just being a lone character, but I really feel like your somehow just missing out on the story around the character, like creepy cave scene, the enemy it's potentially facing etc, I think it'd be really nice to see it in it's own setting, where it can really stand out.
Overall, this has a great deal of good technique and nicely thought out details, but adding more to the piece will increase the interest from the viewer as well.
