Description
I decided to fix up this painting from a few months ago. Mainly the dragon and the sky bothered me. Oh, and the trees. And the crappy contrast, hehe. I like it a lot better now, and hope you guys do too!

Really fantastic!! You did the sky very well, its realistic. He colors are nice; but the wings of the dragon are bizarre, according to me.
Nice work.

Thanks for the feedback! Is there something particular about the wings that looks off? I've been staring at this for so long it's hard to see it with a fresh eye X_X

Haha thanks for the feedback! I thought the dragon was lacking some color and I thought the wings would be more interesting this way.Β

You're welcome. I think that wings could possibly be less bright and saturated, to get their silhouette more distinctive.
Anyway you did great work on this scene!

Oh my - this is every bit as interesting as I hoped it would!
Good call on the leaves - only now, I see they didn't make sense coming from bare trees like that. That said, I think I'm rather fond of the clearer shapes in the old version -Β in the new one, the wings and the clouds are mingling a bit. On the flip side, the sky is more natural-looking now, as well.
Thanks for sharing, I really appreciate you doing this!

Thanks man! I did a rough 3d model of the horse and rider and then looked up a lot of reference on horse anatomy, so it's totally doable
