reminds me a bit of the fertility process

nice work...gl

You can not use the other's drawing to chop, that's strictly prohibited!

Great job!! Good Luck =)

this is awesome!

wow

My grandson would rave over this - just as I am doing. Really great entry!!!

Pretty nice composition, but you should do something about the extreme blurriness of the castle itself. At least sharpen the edges on the top and especially the doorway, as the dragons themselves are pretty crisp and clear. It has a nice scale and colours, you could add some of that fog in front of the middle part of the castle and top, if you can't make it appear more clear. But I think you can at least improve it a little without a fog too.

Nice..!!!

Thank you all for you comments they are very much appreciated.
@Widiar- I have blurred the two dragons on the towers a tad but want to keep the rest as is thanks for your suggestions anyway.

Good concept & execution, but some background edges are sharp, some blurry.

Putting the dragon in front of the image made the image a lot better.

Congrats on the first place!
