this looks, and feels, like it is a still from a cutscene for some upcoming AAA game... framed perfectly, i might add :))

Thank you very much and was trying to get that fine balance between light and dark :)

Oh boy! Some poor soul in that alley must be getting toasted ... probably to a well-done stage! Glad I'm not in their boots ;-)

And I also occasionally diverged from my Sci-Fi to Fantasy with my witches ... I hope that didn't anger the ghost of Isaac Asimov ;-)

Isaac didn't stir...I even poke him in whats left of his shoulder and nope, nothing :)

Thanks for dropping by Max and as the Last of each, they may find a way to co-exist, you never know :)

Wonderful image!

Thank you very much :)

This is not Puff the Magic Dragon! Cool scene

Its his younger brother...lol

Thank you :)

Wonder if an extinguisher wouldn't be more useful than a sword in this case. Nice composition

Several at least, couldn't hurt right ?

Thank you very much :)

Wow, amazing! Right like the movie, I imagine!

Thank you and will let you know when the tickets go on sale...lol

Very dramatic imagery!

Thank you very much :)

I've never really been a fan of sci-fi, but I'm totally into fantasy, so your dragon picture is absolutely fantastic for me, even if it plays an "evil" role in this story... amazing work 💖

Good and Evil exists in everything living and I like what I like but the genre does draw my attention so I am so happy I created something you enjoy :)

I tend to agree with Max and kind of feel a sense of sadness for the knight that is on the receiving end of this dragons flames...I hope he had a very long stick to roast his marshmallows with the fire that this dragon has provided! lol :-)

Not a job anyone would envy and no way does this mission scream success but life is like that :)

Thanks for dropping by Johnny, always appreciated :)

I do all kinds of images. It makes it more interesting to me. Nice image, good concept. - Bob

I play with a lot of styles and usually post what I post but the play is so important as I do not want to be stuck in a rut of doing only 1 kinda piece as I find so many art styles inspirational :)

Thanks Bob :)

I, too, like to do all kinds of images. It doesn't matter which kind you do they are always very good.

Those are very kind words and I do my best to provide some escapism every time someone see my renders :)

Thank you :)

Excellent

Thank you very much :)

Mindblowing outstanding awesome composition, amazing atmosphere and lighting, brilliant render.
Magnificent Masterpiece of Finest Arts. I love it!😊💝🥰

Thank you very much and for your passionate input :)

impressive POV and ordeal he will encounter.

Thank you very much :)

Call the firefighters asap...it's getting very hot !

lol and thank you Gaius :)

I absolutely love dragon stories whether the dragons are good, bad, or somewhere in between. In this case, I can’t help hoping that the dragon and the knight (or dragonslayer) might somehow find a way not to destroy each other. It would be a real shame if the dragon truly is the last of his kind. I have no real sense yet of whether dragons in your world would ever change their minds or their nature, but I would like that idea a lot. The image itself is beautiful. I really like the landscape format, which almost feels inspired by the golden ratio. The warm, reduced color palette works perfectly, and the chosen framing, showing just enough of the dragon creates great tension. And the lighting is wonderful, that warm, intense glow from his fire breath sets the whole scene. Depth of field is spot on, as always. Great work and a fav for me :-)

Thank you for the Fave and kind words :)

I leave the viewer decide the outcome, because it looks bad may not be the case and you could create a whole new story if the Dragon and the Knight worked it all out and worked together.....Can only dream :)

Great job on this!

Thank you very much :)

Fantastic scene here, my friend! Hope the knight prevails!

Not sequel unless he does...lol

Thanks Rod :)

Wow! Impressive. Great lighting

Thank you for the peek :)

If they knew, they would join forces; the end of two civilizations.

and think of the great civilization they could create if only they could get alone :)

Thank you :)

Oh that will be quite the show down. Really love the perspective here.

Can also feel the pain too. Reminds me of cycling violence where someone justifies continuing that violence because of what was taken from them but then does the same to someone else who in turn...

Fight all you want but without understanding why then simply why fight??? :)

Thank you :)
