I finally finished painting this... It took me about a few weeks for me to decide on how to paint this thing in photoshop. It started looking like shit when I began, and I had to change different styles since it wasn't working with how I normally paint my dragons. I didn't realize that it would be so difficult to paint a headshot...
Anyway, this is the finished piece of my dragon character named Thor from my book, The Sorcerer's Dragon. Thor is considered a legendary dragon breed in my book called the Divinity Dragon to where he possesses all elemental abilities (but he has to be trained more to properly use them). If it still looks like shit, I'm sorry. I've spent way too much time on this and I'm somewhat happy with it but it could still be better. Oh well.
Here's the lineart for this piece that I did a while ago:

Next I'm going to work on the request that I have in progress for a good friend of mine, .
Time it took: ~36 hours over the course of 3 weeks.
Tools of Trade: Mechanical pencil, ball point pen, and Adobe Photoshop CS2.
Thor and Selena (c) to me,

this is a amazing piece of artwork that you should be very proud of! it's eye catching, mind blowing and makes me want to know more about the story. it's gripping and sucks you in. if I saw this in a book shop window, I would definitely want to get it, no matter how much it cost. the colouring and shading are very well done and really detailed. the eye and the fire from the mouth are especially realistic. also, the background is in perspective and shady.
all in all, this is a brilliant piece of art that deserves recognition from around the world!

This is a very well put together look for a book cover. The lighting of the fire and the eye were spot on and the flowing mist/smoke will lend itself well to book edges.
Yes it is not the most imaginative thing to have a dragon doing but I feel the details are more than enough to make it uniquely yours. Your scale shading and horn design are excellent and give a dramatic feel.
To be fair though, this pose does work well for a cover but looking at your other dragons, I see that they tend to give 100% profiles of the head. Turning the perspective slightly is hard (something I have difficulty with myself) but could add a lot of life to the subjects and give them the notion of moving in the future.
All in all a satisfying and intense piece.

This is amazing. It's got very nice colors. The fire is beautiful; It flows very nicely.
I wouldn't say it's the most original concept, but the pose and dragon design are very nice.
Technique is amazing! The shine and shading is beautiful. The background is also very nice, and the logo looks good also. It's an overall great drawing, but my favorite part technique-wise is the fire.
It has a huge impact. You look at it, and then it's like; "Whoa. That was awesome." It's got a really intense look, and it leaves you dazzled.
Overall, it's got very nice flow, design, and the drawing style is amazing. : D

This is absolutely beautiful. I can definitely see this for a film poster or a game cover. You deserve a nice pat on the back for making such a glorous image. I am not kidding. This is something I can't ever seem to do. But just keep up the great work and you'll be out there in no time.

Amazing piece you got here, really like the atmospheric background you got going on! The scales are really nice!
But I'm not entirely sure if this dragon is one of those snake like dragons with no arms or what?
