Description
It started as a random doodle and ended up costing me many dear hours of my life. I needed a distraction from colouring comic pages and what would be better suited than drawing dragons?
Detail View:
Pencil sketch = about half an hour
Photoshop = I stopped counting after five hours
Layout and Proportions = huge amounts of chocolates and nerves, plus one very patient husband (because I kept asking him how it looked after making only minor changes in intervals of about ten minutes)
EDIT: Over 100 favs in 10 hours?!
I've never had so many in such a short time. You guys are awesome! Thanks everyone!

Overall
Vision Originality Technique ImpactA well thought out piece of art, with continues flow and detail. The shoal of fish and what appears to be a mermaid help give a sense of scale to the main focus of the piece. The colours are both serene and yet hold a sense of mystery and menace, with the flash of a brighter hue on the tail fins and spines. The bio-luminescence highlights on the lower section of the leviathan create anther layer of magic to the art. Perhaps the dragon isn't everyone's idea of what a "leviathan" looks like but it is certainly a very good interpretation and stands up on its own merits.
