Description
For 's dragon contest.The markings are from the Yellow-banded Poison-arrow frog. In latin its name is Dendrobates Leucomelas and from the latin names of the other poison-arrow frogs I'm guessing dendrobates means poison-arrow frog and so I have named my dragon Draco Leucomelas.
Came 2nd

Great colors! Very vivid, just like the frog
The latin translation of 'leucomelas' is "white-black". I'm not sure how this relates to the frog, but I would guess that the poison is a milky white...

Your imagination to keep creating new dragons is pretty damn big, can't wait to see further dragons.
Also, nice touch with the Latin name.

Does not, its weird but its very well drawn and designed. Probably better than mine really, you've done a whole load more work in converting your markings into dragon than I have.

Yeah, the frog he is based on is quite skinny, not sure why he came out round but as soon as I saw the photo I just knew he was a big fat round dragon.
