I love dragons too . . . but I hate inking. Anyway, on to the subject. Overall a fairly nice job at the dragon, if a bit plain. It'd be nice to see the partitions on the right (back) wing, because right now it just looks flat. And the difference in color between the left (front) wing and body makes it look to me as if the win'gs merely tacked on (one of my longstanding complaints about the dragon genre).<br />
<br />
Those aside, when I compare this to my usual list of criteria for dragons:<br />
- The wing bones aren't dangerously thin<br />
- The neck and tail are neither too long nor too thin<br />
- The legs are evenly proportioned<br />
...I find hardly anything I can complain about. That leaves the technique. The crosshatching is a pretty nice job, although in some areas like the wings it could look better if you use a less rigid cross-hatching, i.e. align most of the lines to paralell the contours of wing edges and partitions. Same for the body, put some more curves into the shading, and it'd be perfect. So the big question of the night is should I fave this or not?<br />
<br />
Or maybe the big question for the night is, considering it's been months since you first made and uploaded this drawing, if you were to go back and draw a dragon, how much better would it look?
