Description
"Pulsing veins were outlined briefly in the stretched membrane of her wings. Then, like dye spilled in water, colour flowed through them. Her wings went from transparent to translucent to a rich sparkling blue,...but the word 'blue' had taken on a new meaning in the brilliance of her scales." - Robin Hobb , The Mad Ship.Closeup of the face & egg .

Created for Fantasy I: Dragons @ Worth1000
Created entirely in Photoshop CS2 using a few lizards, frogs, iguanas, newts, bats, snakes, a snow leopard and a very bad tempered camel.

I'm amazed by the realism of this, you really have to look twice to see that it's a manip- and even then, you have to take a very careful second look! And, I love the fact that you made the dragon tiny, rather than using the usual cliche of a gigantic dragon, this adds cuteness and originality! Great work!

Yes, it's all Photoshop. I made it for a contest at Worth1000.com, where you had to create a photo-realistic dragon.

Wicked cool^^ It looks so real... truly amazing work. I was sure it was a statue until I looked at the category and saw that it was a photomanip. Great job indeed

nice manip. I think the dragon itsself is a little bright and could use a little less color saturation I think. If you add more blurring on different parts of the dragon, it seems like it will be a good depth of field agent. Right now, the foot look flat against the mushroom. hope this helps!

Nice idea. I thought at first it was about Tingtagel, the castle, but seeing it overall, its nice. I really like the amount of focus on the dragon to background which isn't the main focus, allows the viewer to believe what they are seeing.
It's a good trick of the eye.

Thanks.
The idea was to create as photorealistic a dragon as possible, without using any existing 3D models, fantasy illustrations, or movie stills.
