Very nice design and coloring! I love the vivid saturation on the wings. The yellow on the face is a pleasant contrast to the overall color scheme. You've also avoided the common problem of streaks in the coloring, a common beginner's mistake.
Out of curiosity, did you use the Styx dragon (D&D 3.5 Draconomicon) as a pose reference? If you did you should probably site it as a ref

Thank you a lot for the inteligent comment! ^^

Yeah! I actually got the book for all the pretty pictures... Then realized there were awesomeful descriptions to go with them! 
The Styx dragon is one of my favs, which is why I recognized it so fast - I think I tried to draw it once, but it looked really bad

But don't give up trying!
I also got the book, when I love the work I like to buy the original as a way to show my respect. ^^

For first time use of markers, it's well done. It should be hard to have it done? (I never used markers to collour, so IDK)

In fact no, markers are very quick. I did it in just 3 hours!
But is a bit "monochromatic" to my mind, maybe because I'm a noob with this kind of material. ^^

I see. I got the same thing currently with colloured pencils (Since I use them for approx 6 months). I'm sure you'll improve, if you keep practising!
