ok, here's the pic:



Now, what's missing? Nekkid ladies riding on dragons, cloudy castles dwarfing in comparison with the wyrm (scale things), the little kid riding the wyrm yelling in rapture, or something else?

The lighting's a bit odd, there's a secondary lightsource behind the pov or something.

So, rip me apart, mmkay?

Oh, and if someone would like to make another painting of the wyrm, go ahead, maybe viewing from the ground up with some building(s) in the front and the wyrm diving from the pink and black stormclouds (moo-dy) or whatever. Ok, enough rambling for now, back to searching for my lost wacom pen :/

Nice pic kig! I love the metallic scales! The only thing that I can point out that doesn't seem quite right is that the dragon doesn't seem to be connected with the light source......the dragon's head which is facing the blue burst would have communed some of that blue light! The scales look highly reflective so it would communicate a lot of that blue lighting! You knew that!

Hi, man! Eli terve kaveri..

Okay! I really like your painting. Nice colors and beatiful lighting. It looks like something between classic painting and fantasy. Tosi nasta. Hmmm... I'm sorry that I haven't enough time to redraw some points but I think that it looks a bit flattened... maybe. Maybe yuo should try to darken the nearest clouds. But still there have to be those very light edges on those. Light source is bright so that's ok. And the other point which came up my mind is that same update would be nice to the planet, I think. Now the planet looks also little bit 2d instead of 3d look.

But absolutely it's nice pic. Great.

About same in finnish:
ELi v�h�n suomeks sanon sulle t�h�n. Kuten sanoin, toi maalaus on todella upee, mut se n�ytt�� v�h�n kasaan lynt�tylt�. Kaikessa komeudessaankin. Hehe. No. Koska kuvan valonl�hde on noinkin kirkas niin valon kontrastit on oikeesti paljon suurempia. Pilvien sisimm�t reunat katsojasta k�sin pit�is olla siis tummempia etualalla. Ja sit toi planeetta tossa pit�is olla paljon tummempi alhaalta eli et se oli enemm�n pallon n�k�inen. :] Reuna siin� n�ytt�� hienolta. Hyv�. Ja sit se metallinen lohik��rmekin, sen sisin reuna vois olla tummempi. Valon kontrastin takia. Ja.. ja ... ja... blaah. Okei.. Toi on tosi hieno ty�. Hyv� juttu.

It's good enough.

Hey!

I take a little time to redraw some points. It took few minutes. It's quick one but maybe it gives you an idea of my meaning. I don't know if it's worse than yours but that was my idea and imagination?!? What do you think about it?

Maybe it's just me, I think the picture might look better cropped, get rid of some of the clouds on the right, they draw attention away from the center figure ...

Sometimes less is more ...

But I think this picture is still excellent (really excellent) as it stands.
