Your dragons remind me of large birds, like ostriches or emus...In the shape of their head, that is.
Nice work

Gorgeous!
I love the amount of detail you've put in to this picture. I could ever do anything like this traditionally.
Just keep up the great work

The amount of detail and creativity you put into your foilage amazes me every time. There is no leafe shape or shade of green that seems doubled or boring. Everything looks so vivid and credible.
Not to mention your seemingly endless patience for little nicknacks like the butterly, the dragon's scales. Absolutely beautiful!

The colours you used go beautifully together, especially the earth tones of the forest. Excellent job with the shading and the details.

It is lovely! But I have one or two little suggestions, I hope that is ok. (art director in training) xD
You may know these things and are not doing them because of your style. But I want to mention them just in case because I mentioned these two things to one of my friends recently and she was like "OMG why didn't anyone tell me!" xD
Both traditional media and digital media can benefit from these techniques. (I actually learned this in a painting class.)
- I see you already include some purply/blueish tint in your shadows. That effect also works wonderfully when applied to objects/landscape that are in further away. As things recede into the distance they become a bluish/purplish grayed out color because of the atmosphere. The further away they get, the more definition they lose, and the more grayed out they become.
- Your transitions into lighter colors works very well. But perhaps if you push your shadows/dark areas more it would make the lighter colors pop even more and give a feeling of more depth.

thanks for the input, i've been thinking my colors were probably a bit flat so it's good to get a second opinion
i'll probably go back and darken them up a bit more in this one, but not too much because i'm afraid of screwing it up at this point
but i will try to work of my shading a bit more in my next drawing/painting/whatever i do next
