That is beautiful. You are really good at the lighting. The dragon is awesome, and you seem to have used your friend's design well. Some of the background looks a little 2D. The tree on the left looks a bit flat, but the dragon is wonderfully 3D. The grass and leaves look a little bit blurred. But I guess it would take a whole bunch of time and effort to draw each blade of grass. I'm just trying to give a meaningful comment because it is kind of useless when people comment and all they say is something like "wonderful" if you know what I mean.

Wow, one of your best pics yet I'd say.
How do you get your lines so smooth? Do you use the pen tool? I just got my tablet a few weeks ago and with the paintbrush in Adobe Photoshop my lines still seem wobbly. D:

thanks
I like to draw the line art by hand and scan it in to color it on the mac and I some times use the smudgi tool. that smooths it out a bit

Cool. Do you have a fancy schmancy pen for traditional line-art? I'm wondering if I should go and buy one. :/

I have the 1$ pen... no fancy schmancy needed
I have some fancy pens but I don't see the need in them but a good paintbrush is much needed! used a lot of money on fancy non-cheep paintbushes
hehe

xP well my point is: is not the pen that makes the drawing
just find a pen you like to hold in your hand and that writes
