The idea of a dragon whose batlike wings are missing their skin membrane, turning them into immensely elongated fingers is vaguely reminding me of my blind cave dragon.

I love the thighs on that dragon, they look so thick and solid. You have an amazing grasp of anatomy.

Its gorgious, give you that. And honistly not that bad of a view to have eighter. Just to bad it will only hold like 1/100000 of the current population.

Thank you! Though neither of them are my characters, it was a commission.

Oh nice! At first I was confused by the very long claws and then I realized that those were wing bones with no wings attached! Very interesting.

Wow, thank you. I am amazed you say you envy my talent, your dragon anatomy/details is far superior to my own.
I'm really glad you like it.

I have admired your work as long as I've seen it, and have envied your talent for the exact same amount of time - your style and sense of atmosphere is just beautiful, as well as melancholy. I really love the way you created the light effects across the scales - that is something I have not been able to do myself, and you rendered them gorgeously. I am very happy that you have submitted some more work recently - thank you very much!

This. I love it. Everything about it is so nicely done and very gritty. You and your ability with watercolours. <3

Oooh, very well done. I like how it suggests there's quite a story to be told.
