Description
update: added some more detailing in the background & on the rocks based on some good feedback.update: added even more detail & made it a bit more fiery.
here I am again with a little painting of a very big-looking dragon.
photoshop over a couple of evenings.
the 2 human characters & surroundings were somewhat difficult.
I started with just a sketch of a dragon & it kind of grew more & more into an epic fantasy scene.

thank you very much for your kind comment.
especially that it's a great picture.
I do admit that the colorsceme itself was something more ambitious that I planned & worked on.
the little peoples & their placing/surroundings was my biggest concearn.
I'm glad you like the result.
cheers!

Awesome.

thank you for your spot-on comment my friend.
that real fantastical feel of the dragon , especially in the colorchoice, has come together perfectly. it's what I'm most pleased with myself.
the human characters as you may notice were more of a painted-in afterthought. though I do dig that little knight.
cheers!

that's a good one. toast. maybe an image of the aftermath.

I'm glad that you like the little human characters since they were my biggest concearn to get right in this piece.
cheers!

That is, epic, I love how truly enormous the dragon is, and how it's quite unique. I think that knight there is either very hopeful, very brave, very desperate or more than a little daft XD or a combination.
The landscape is really good and the lighting is just right in my opinion

thank you very much for your comment.
the knight is probably a little bit of both I think.
lighting & color were a real challenge so I'm glad you like it.
