Wow - a piece of painting by me for me. A very rare occurence!

A bit of a fantasy standard - red dragon vs adventurers. Can't beat the classics, eh? ;)

This one was really painted to be printed rather large, so the characters can't really be seen in all their glory on screen, sadly.

Sketched in Photoshop very quickly, painted rather more slowly in Painter.

Haha, definetely a classic. :D The title gives it humour too so it gave me another perspective. I see a bit frustration in the warrior. "Damn you! I'm the one with the armour and the low dexterity but you high-ranged agile heroes always send me forward! Why do I have the initiative all the time! Do you carry those daggers and scythes just to show off! Swing them a little bit sometimes, godsdammit! And watch out you love-for-green-archer! Don't point that thing to me! I don't have a apple on my head! There is a huge red-like-apple dragon just right before me and you are still aiming at me!"

I'm sorry I can't stop laughing. :D I'm not making fun of the picture! (Just to make it clear.) Just my imagination. :D The picture is unbelievably beautiful. Definetely a fave. :)

I had to click this


I'm gonna be honest, I had a dream of stairs like that and towers a bit larger, and being in a party like the one you made, but only thing really different was that the dragons were all flying off somewhere with their leader, leaving the residence of the towers wondering what was going on. I asked if we would follow and was told I wasn't going to go to where they were going, and then woke up.


second reason i had to click this was because it's so nicely done.

:D
