What a happy friend! The only critique I would give is that the dragon could stand out from the ground more. It's still stunning tho.

What kind of magic paint thinner are you sniffing and where can I get some?! Damn this is cool!

I was in the hospital when the competition was announced and thought long and hard of whether or not I wanted to draw myself. I decided to save my idea for another piece, but I commend your bravery and I wish you well.
