>>FUll VIewwwww<< The colors look funky on the small view....

requested a picture of a koi... so, here it is! Er, well, it looked more like a koi when i started, but now it's sort of...less so. I've been working on this for the past...eh, week or so. Actually, it's been longer than that, I've just been going really slow. The background took me the longest (no surprise there I guess) but hopefully this time i gave the characters justice too. I really like the way the scales on the dragon turned out, as well as the dude's red cape. I don't know what it is with me and red, but I like it, and I like the way the sun goes through it. So anyway. I could comment on every little bit of this picture, but I'd rather know what you guys think about it. =P

Oh wow, this is beautiful! The lighting is perfect, and your attention to detail astounds me! I like the use of red, because it really stands out against all the cool colours you used in the background. The lighting on the water, the ripple effect, the scales on the dragon, the flowy cape, the mossy rocks... this picture is incredible. WONDERFUL job!

Holy texture, Batman.

Sweet rendering. I'm enthralled!

What's your take on the two land masses on the horizon? I think they way they join the two walls closest to us is mildly distracting. I think the image would show better design elements if they were omitted.
