So... it's been untold numbers of years since I last drew a dragon. I figured I'd see if I could draw one out of my head while I was unwinding from a particularly busy period at work, today. All in all, I'm quite pleased with how it came out. I wasn't sure about adding the wings, but I'm glad I did.

*gasps* Dragon! That makes me untold amounts of happy. Something very different from the normal works I see from you, but a great job.
As for the wings, I do have a few suggestions anatomy-wise. First of all, the wing pose seems really akward. Having them raised up in the air like that looks uncomfortable. My only other thought would be the wing arm not having enough bulk, especially compared with the size of the creature and the muscle mass on the legs.
And the head is just freaking fantastic. For not drawing a dragon in forever, you've done that part way better than a lot of dragon specific artists I know.

Well, the wing pose is akward, yes, but that's because a more relaxed pose for them would've covered up the body, and I hate covering up my work. =P
The muscles on the wing arms are spread out over a much longer area than on the other limbs, so they wouldn't look as bulky as the rest. That's how I see it, anyhow.

You did good with this, kitten, I like how the head turned out on it, though I might've put less horns on it. The half-foot, half-hands on the front legs look kinda interesting. Though, really, it was just the wings that were a stretch for you, since it's not like you haven't been taken with the urge to draw lizards at times. :P
