Description
And finally, the last in my current dragon series, the White dragons. The first thing you'll notice is that, chromatically speaking, white dragons aren't entirely white, but rather a variety of off-white hues.
White Dragons are the single most feared and respected of all dragon types, even though they are actually the second youngest. In fact, White Dragons take second place in just about every category that you can compare dragons in -- second to sky dragons when it comes to flying, second to sea dragons at swimming, second to fire dragons in fire-breath, second to snow dragons in ice-breath, second to sea dragons at using sonar, and second (again) to sky dragons for thunder-breath.
As you might have already guessed, White Dragons are the most feared not because they are the most skilled at any one thing, but because they are skilled at everything. They fly, they breathe underwater, and besides their sharp claws and teeth, they have all types of dragon-breath at their disposal. Their scales are equally versatile, allowing them to live in many environments (hot, cold, mountainous, and underwater alike), and growing in many strengths -- the scales along their head, back, and legs especially being the strongest and thickest scales of any dragon.
Like all dragons, white dragons are generally peaceful and respecting, but their mixed abilities make them are one race you definitely don't want to be on the wrong side of!

It's so cute. You made it look innocent. Hoenstly, this looks like a younger dragon and a sweeter one. I don't know if that was your intention, but I love it

Well, you already know what I said about the form, so I'll just comment on the colouring.<br />
<br />
I think the best part of the colouring job is not the colour choices, but the shadows under the wing. That is beautiful. An the job that you did fading the scales, while still keeping them visible, is amazing.
