Description The mighty Temeraire standing in high grass in the autumn. This is my second entry for the Temeraire contest.

It took about 5 hours, using only Photoshop. I'm quite happy with it^^ Especially the wing, I think... Well hope you like it.

Edit: I took away the watermark now that the contest has ended.^^ Now you can see the wing properly. I found it hard to do a wing with 6 spines, lol

It's a color feast! And the white stuff looks great with it. Temeraire also looks good, good job on the wing

Maybe you should go for not maximum saturated colors and make the trees more plastical. You made the dragon look plastical already by the shading.

You know, I've seen a lot of art with Temeraire and I've heard its a book of some sort, is it kind of like Eragon? Sorry, totally clueless here.

It is the age when Napoleon lived. They are fighting in the war between Great Brittany and France, not only on the sea and on land, but also in the air, with dragons. The story center the dragon Temeraire and his captain Laurence. In Eragon there are very few dragons and the world is totoally other, with magic, elves and such. In the Temeraire books there are no magic. It is simply the world like we know it, but with intelligent dragons.

Wow, that actually sounds kinda cool. Is there only one book or is there a series? (Wow, question much?)

WHOA! this is something new. the main thing in the picture is the thing without the color, and everything else is colorful. Interesting way of making the dragon stand out.
