;^^; (crying tears of joy) its so awesome

Very nice :3

the contest sounds like a great idea!

A very beautiful piece indeed! Well done!

Amazing! If there is such a thing as a writing contest, I'll make sure to participate. I'll try to find creativity.

Mention this to me

Watch the weather change.

Dir kann man echt nix vormachen ;D

Nice! Love the pose and colors!

Very classic, love this look :3

I love it how you're not afraid to paint stuff, and it turns out so nice! I wish I had that kind of patience D: It looks really good... especially the colors you used, they're almost monochromatic besides the sky, which is good because it lets the sky pop, but not too much, and it makes for a really nice feel :3

Thanks for saying so C: I can't handle color that well, so it always turns out rather monochromatic, when i don't use any references.
But i will keep on practising *nods*

Sieht schön aus. Die Pose und der Hintergrund sind toll geworden. :)

Yeah true!

Unfortunately the series is not available anymore in Germany. I got some used books, but still do not own all parts of Pern.

Uh, well you are right. When I last thought about it amazon wasn't existing. I'll think about it, but then I would like to have all parts of it in english to have a complete series. Thank or reminding me!

I likes it! <3

:o
Writing contest? It's been so long since I've written anything. ;n; Totally intrigued though.
Also intrigued by your leaking brush? What do you mean? How does a tablet stylus leak? Or am I just not reading close enough?
Despite this issue you mentioned, the picture looks really awesome. I love the colors you used. They remind me of some of my favorite sunsets here at home. <3

Oh wait...i used the wrong word. I mean when the computer is too slow for painting...and every stroke comes a few sec. too late. Or it does nothing at all ^^;
But never the less, thanks for the kind words :)

Sounds absolutely frustrating. When I use photoshop on larger files my stylus lags like that. It's incredibly frustrating. :C

Sieht wirklich toll aus! :3

I think next year we will spend another hour at EF Auctions selling your stuff, dear XD

I should start producing something ^^; Arg.
Something like this in traditional media would be awesome.

Gorgeous work! Well done with the background and the wonderful pose! :)

hmm ... you would like to have a Story ... ... well lets see how much space this massage box has

... "These are the last rescued records of the arcmages Glavoridan's arcane sanctum", says Nimsle, your long time friend and student of the Grand academy of Illusions . In the ruins of this once mighty tower lies another dusty book. You whipe the dust away and as the last sunrays of the upcoming dusk fall on the lether cover a sparkling picture catches your eye. Beneth this filigree piece of art you see mystical looking runes, wich gleam in silver and gold. As you marvel at this book you shout out to your friend: "Nimsle ! I've found another one, and it seems to be verry special". The Scolar quickly runns towards you and with a prestidigitation that has no equal, he picks the book out of your paws. "What ist this?" mumbles Nimsle as he strats to read the glittering runes ...

The Guardians of Direfall

In a time long before the kingdoms of the humans began to reign, ancient and wise species of humanoid creatures ruled humble over every living beeing. They lived in perfect symbiosis with nature, stone and the spirits of their ancesters. Ancient and mythical creatures, legends in our times, kept wach over this fragile balance. Today their known to us as dragons, nothing more than a myth in our times, but they live. Now here the story of the last guardian of direfall, the last survivor of this glorious empire.

... Nimsle turns over the page and as he looks at the red letters a confused expression slumps over his exited face. "I can't read this." he wispers. "These are no known symbols to any man alive. The dragon itself must have written the rest of the book". he whispers with an indignant sigh and sits down in the gutted ruins. As i kneel down and lay my paw on his shoulder i hear him mumble "dragans are no fantasy, they are real. And one is still alive" ...

ok ... enough for now i don't want to detroy the possible contest Ro but YOU FORCED ME TO DO THIS !!!

Writers always baffle me. HOW do they come up with this?

Yeah...same thought here.

Just
I would love to read more. srly C:

well ... *smiles humble* ... i think i can write maybe one or two lines more ... but you'll get that via pm or some other way ... i don't want to spam in your comments here

Really beautiful work. :) I really love the mood you gave this.

I really like complex dragons.. but this is sooo simple and elegant. The whole piece is very smooth and soft, it just kind of leaps off the page to me. It's beautiful ^.^ Thanks for sharing!

Classic dragon scene
