Art complete!
This piece was quite a bit simpler than my last one, but I think the perspective and composition are a bit more elegant. That sky sure was fun to draw.
I'm trying to work on my painting technique, so this one is much less reliant on lines than my last piece. Also, I got tired of using a pre-made tree brush, so I made a new brush of my own again.
I hope you all enjoy it. Comments and criticism are always welcome, and I'll do my best to reply to every one.

I'm glad you enjoy it.
The dragon might look a little thin, but in a way it adds to the mood that I think you were trying to create here; very lightly, very airy. While still suggesting that massive scale subtly!
Hm...
Yes, another thing I like is how little the scene stings or ''yells''. Perhaps worded a little cryptically, but what I mean is that some artworks have a lot of kick; grabbing attention, forced focus points and so on and so forth.
I do not notice it -as much- here. Sure, the dragon is an eye-grabber, but not in a way that grabs you tightly. I also like the style you apply, it is a nice blend of realism and stylization that I personally haven't seen much.
Very, very well done
I even dreamed of this picture after I've seen it for the first time
Well, that's interesting. It is an original, and I haven't given permission for anyone to use it in a calendar.
I have the psd file with all the layers, and everything... Interesting...
I'm really glad you like it, though.
scarlet.nightfury saying its her "ancestor scarface"
It looks like the art is down now, though.
If you had a hand in that, as well, I thank you.

He/She must be Freakin' BIG!
But I feel that I have to nudge you since I noticed you missed a finger on the wing to the right. The left one has 5 and that elbow one, whilst the right only has 4.
It is poetic!
