I was sitting up late one night playing video games, and started doodling a dragon picture on a post it note. I liked it enough that I drew it in color pencil, didn't like that one, then drew it in ball point, didn't like it, so scanned both, overlayed them, and made a background for it. I did like the overall effect. I think he looks pretty evil, if not a bit stupid.

Your mean Sophia. Dragons aren't nasty at all and definitely not what you call them. They deserve respect, more than us filthy humans. *mutters at us, wishing she were a dragon*

Woah...been awhile since anyone commented on this. Well, you are especially talented among your peers at blending the Bryce backgrounds with your pen/pencil drawings. Usually they look out of place, but yours don't. That said, the dragon's head is very bright and clear, whereas the background lightsource is dim and very green. I'd be interested to see how the dragon would look with some green color shifts done to make it look more a part of the background environment.

It's great. I like the background you put in. Talking of backgrounds... may I ask the name of the program in which you made it? I'm actually having problems with a DEMO I've got...
