Dreadful Prescence

Here it is, my contest entry for @FiveRealmsCreators and I really like how it turned out. Hope its not too dark to notice the details, since that what I was going for with this.

At first it was going to just be Malavon, but I wanted to add more to the entry and so I added Skye. With a setting that fits the vibe the artwork, with Malavon looming over behind her.

I really like how imposing Malavon's design is, which is why I wanted him to feel big in this. What I also like is the reverse scales on his body, which in myth a reversed scale drives a dragon into a frenzy, from his design whether its intentional or not. Having asymmetrical head feels like a bit story telling, with the left horns being bigger which is interesting.

I like how Skye is unique for a dragon, having feathered wings and a tail instead. Her elemental capabilities from her ref are very interesting on how they're described.
