K this is the 'nearly done' version of this concentration. There is another one, the one 2-3 steps behind this, in the gallery next to it (if you mind looking, that is)

Here is the step before it:[link]
:iconorange-leaves:
It's clear that your dragon is underwater - the way the light, resolution and color recede make it immediately obvious. The light source is consistent; a bit from the artificial light by the diver, a bit from above and they have different color-temperatures, too. The sinuous shape recedes into the background, echoed by the rows of scales and the crest ridge. One thing that might make it "pop" more is highlighting the reflection off the dragon's eyes, perhaps. One suggestion have is that the diver uses an air hose, an antiquated piece of equipment, but the helmet does not match it; it seems too small. From what I have seen in the museum, the old "aqualung" helmets were pretty big, spanning almost from shoulder to shoulder. I know you can't show the bars over the windows because of the angle, but that's okay. If you make the diving equipment more consistent, it will place your dragon into a particular period in history right away (think Captain Nemo...)

IMHO, this image would make a wonderful wallpaper poster. I would buy it.
What do you think?
