Oh, and yes. When you leave a comment/critique on a picture, try not to focus too hard on the positives or the negatives alone. (An yeah, I'm guilty of that myself...)

I'd recommend using the "good news, bad news" (or in some cases, "bad news, good news") method when you do comments.

So, about the comment you left on my dragon pic. I already know what many of the nits would be, because when it comes to extreme perspective aka foreshortening -- I suck. It's not easy to do.

Some of the reasons I can explain, though. The duke's right leg is supposed to be at an oblique angle to the canera (thus appearing short), while his left let, I forgot to shade in the ground underneath it, thus it looks like it's "in" the fire (which is more or less true). The dragon, well his head should be facing more directly towards the camera since there's supposed to be about 10-15 paces of distance between him and the duke (the duke's sword is about the same length as the dragon's crest horns, in fact). But without much in the picture to imply distance with, it's difficult to pull off.

As for the dragon's fire itself, I didn't feel a need to explain it but it basically has to do with how I view dragons actually breathing fire to begin with. I don't imagine the typical "flamethrower" action when a dragon breathes fire, I imagine more like the dragon's actually spitting fire. Specifically, I see it as the dragon spitting out a highly flammable napalm compound that catches fire as if flies through the air. Because the napalm compound is a liquid, it goes "splash" when it hits an obstacle like a shield -- that's why there's fire on the ground and all over the place.
