Name: Austru a.k.a The Southern Wind Race: Treasure Dragon Age: 230 Years Gender: Male Element: Wind Sub Type: Eye Colour: Ocher Yellow Hide Colour: Grey with an offset of orange Mane Colour: A lighter shade of orange, comes off as a wispy smoke Other: He has a miscoloured right paw, and his wings are hard to see being made of his element instead of a more physical property. Often gets mistaken as a land dragon because of this. Personality Traits: Austru is a laid back, move at his own pace kind of guy. He is the more sympathetic of Daichi's two brothers feeling that though he was sent to fetch Daichi back and doesn't agree with everything he is doing that it's his choice. History: Was Sent by his mother to fetch the way-ward and eldest son Daichi.
Nice stuff. The wings irk my brain since it's trying to decide if the wings are simply smoke or if they do start out as solid and then diffuse as they extend from the body.
I see you've requested for a critique, so i thought of writing one, but since not that good of an artist, it's probably more appropriate for me to write a comment.
I think that the background doesn't really match the actual picture in terms of colour. If I'm not wrong, the wing is glowing and gives the light source on the dragon right? In this case, I think the contrasting of shadow and highlight should be much higher. Thus, you should give the grass some lighting rather than leaving it a silhouette; and adding the shadow casted by the dragon in that lighting would probably make the picture look better.
Anyway, it's quite a nice picture, like the wings especially. ^^
