Description
The dragon looked upon the Maiden of the Heavens with love in his heart. She asked as she went to turn away from him, "What could you bring me that would show your love?" And the beast replied, "All I can bring you is the world."
Painter/Photoshop/Bryce 5/Poser/Glitterato
This is another in my mixture series. The girl is completely handdrawn (no poser or textures including the dress) from scratch, while the dragon was posed in Poser and rendered separately in Bryce. It was then put together and given effects in Painter.

Nice work, great mood and lighting choices. The cloth work is excellent. I am having a bit of trouble with the perspective on the girl, though.. it's almost as if some parts of her are in profile and others edge toward 3/4 view, but it is very minor imho.

A whimsically lovey image- I like it very much. I have to wonder though- would a Dragon actually give its eggs up to anyone? It's like giving away one's children ~ Unless the young lady is someone truly special, and the baby will treated in an unusual way- such as with teacher and student. - Jon Rich

Very lovely. Can hardly tell the woman was hand drawn. Very nice detail on the dress. She looks more real than the dragon does. ;)

Way to go Shadow - your images breath true life into the meaning of REAL art. Your hand-drawn maiden is absolutely perfect and a testament to the skills you weld beautifully. I am always amazed by your ability to render originality!

I just love this scene... Has a sort of heavenly mood to it.. The only scratch in the surface is the dragon who to me looks a bit more "3D" than the rest of the scene... I really like the colours... It really is heavenly
