The journey [CITMON]
This is a kind of unusual commission. The commissioner - 
raven-2007 wanted to draw him Misha (Feathered Mist and Rasta's son) because he thinks this character is cute. So, here is Misha as a young adult dragon during his journey

This was a nice thing to start the day with. ^^
There's lots of satiating detail... like the 'webbing' on the back of his leg behind his knee... the ripples in his skin where his joints are, like near his paws... the striated muscles around his wings... so much to see. The shading/lighting on him really shows his features well, like the bones on his legs, which stands out well when they are illuminated by the sun and also casting a shadow. I imagine that his pose was more challenging than normal, to draw. Seeing the paw-pads like this is something we don't see much of, it's nice. ^^
The composition is good. The picture follows the photographic rule-of-thirds nicely, with Misha being two-thirds across from the left and the horizon being around one-third up from the bottom.
The background is amazing too, as some other people have pointed out. It is a beautiful sunset, but not just like any other sunset with only warm pink/orange/red colours - the darker cloudy streaks adds some variety, so the sunset could be interpreted ambivalently - it could represent either positive happiness, or a darker, slightly more forboding, sinister theme. It is also a little blurry and indistinct, which helps put the focus back on the main subject - Misha. The sunset gives Misha's skin/scales a warm hue, which is a nice touch.
Overall, it looks pretty epic! :) Thanks very much for undertaking the CITMON commission, I hope you enjoyed drawing it.

It looks absolutely lovely :D (all the lighting and detail...)
I was wondering if you, and the commissioner, would be happy for me to incorporate this image with credit in a presentation about Krita?
I should be giving a little bit of background on Krita and some tips at a panel at EF, and was thinking it might be nice to include examples of furry artists who already use Krita :)
