First place prize from 's Dragon Hatchling Contest for *Aribis

I love this one. This character is epic, and such fun to draw. I was more painterly this time, due to this digital painting I did the other day . I've found a way to be more loose, free, and more happy with my work.

Also, I used a larger version of my watermark, and I have Irae coming through it halfway, to make it more interesting, to incorporate my watermark, and to not hide the head and wings. It was spire of the moment for me to add, but I like it. My watermark adds to the presentation, somehow.
