i love the head detail...5 stars!

Very, very good! Especially for a hard angle!

thank you

WOW i luv the yellow eye it's the same color as my dragon form eyes! it also gives a contrast that draws the artist to the face of the dragon! very well drawn!

This is marvelous! The shading and detail is wonderful, and how you contrasted the eye from the rest of the body is an amazing technique to use. As I said on your other pictures, your porportions need work, but this is rather good!

not only is this a good pic, but it's perfect for an rp! *the clouds above float lazily along against a blue sky* *the cool breeze blows gently by, carrying red, orange, and brown leaves with it* *the rolling plains house nothing much except a couple of trees* *however, we are too occupied to noitice this: we are tied up and hanging upside-down over a large lake of molten lava that a fire sprite gang formed up just for us* *the rope is unbreakable, and we are slowly being lowered as the fire sprites giggle*

*stares at fire* oh, lovely situation...*a lava bubble bursts*

*laughs grimly* well, it could be worse... *the sprites giggle insanely and fly to the top of the rope* *one sprite pulls out a small dull knife and starts sawing the rope* ok, it just got worse!

*sees the lava and first thought is what a wonderful shade of red and then it's omg! forget colors that is lava! * hey what do you think ur doing! are you INSANE!

NUUU! i'm too young to die! *wails*

*growls at sprite who stops cutting and looks sideways at me* *she flies eye-level with me and speaks in a tiny voice:* can you do that again please? me: what?! you're trying to kill me! why should i?! *she frowns and pulls out her knife, flying back to the rope and sawing at it*

hey i think it likes ur growl!

hmm..odd. but i think it does!

*i huff* stupid peice of... *i growl again* *the sprite stops cutting and squeals in joy* *the other sprites (3 in total) start giggling* *the beg me to keep making the "kitty-sound"* *i roll my eyes and sigh... loudly...*

*feels the rope getting weaker* for the love of all that is camo growl again! *begins to eye te rope* what so funny about a dragon's growl?

yes please do! or i will make you miserable in the after life!

thank god it's a dull knife! wat can we do after we distract them again? there has to be some way out of this hot situation....

(sorry, slow computer ><) *i keep growling, raising and lowering my pitch* *the rope starts fraying (coming apart) i'll distract the sprites, and you two see if you can brace us when the rope snaps

alright, i'll keep that in mind. *watches the rope worriedly* (ooo, gotta go! bye! *glomps* you two continue..^^)

*i growl and turn to the right, the sprites following the sound*

i it's working!

*the rope suddenly snaps, sending us plummeting*

*opens wings and gradually steers us away from the lava* (bye jade!*waves vigorously*) *eyes are closed and askes did it work???*

(see ya jade! *glomps*) *we land, hard, on solid ground, only 2 feet from the lava* yes it worked! *i pull off the rest of the rope and pull catc up* now come on! let's get out of here! *i start running, pulling catc behind me, the sprites screaming in anger*

*runs* i think they're just a little upset...... *runs a little faster as they scream out in anger*

only a little, of course... *the sprites fly after us* in this wide plain, where do we hide?!

umm.........*looks around wildly* not even a rock to hide under! wat if we change to grass? i don't know how......we could.....or you could change to an animal.......

*i turn back to look: the sprites are gaining* no, they would see me change. there's only one way to go: *i point up and smile* top floor, here we come! *i leap into the air*

*flies as a hawk* (yays, i is back!)

(yay jade! we're starting to fly now, f.y.i. )

*looks back and then flies into the air* (hey jade!*waves furiously*)

*the sprites fly after us* ok, um.. i have an idea, but do exactly what i say, ok guys?

(waves back the same) alright. *nods her head*

okays!

*takes deep breath* ok, follow me exactly, and when i say "split", jade, you go to the left and catc, you go to the right. *i sharply turn around and head straight for the sprites*

*growls* and leave you alone?

okay *prepares to steer right*

no... just trust me, jade... *the sprites hover in midair, watching us warily* ok... one... two... SPLIT!

*steers shrply right and looks back to see jade doing the same, but to the left.....*

okay, okay..*Darts to the left*

*i charge straight for the sprites, but at the last second, i veer up and over them, turning back to laugh at their stunned faces* ok jade and catc... um, that was about it.. ><

ummmm......okay i get it it so that we could get them confudled and them get them seperated.....wait! they're fire sprites right? isn't the enemy of fire ice?

so is water..^^ and oh..okay Dspice.

heh heh no worries jade. ok, new plan: head back, do the exact same thing, but this time, each of us battle one sprite. got it? *chuckles at the thought of battle*

*stops and braces and takes a deep breath*

*changes to dragon form* ready! *grins*

*the sprites turn around, a little dazed* ok, lets go! *i zoom off towards the sprites, their eyes widening* *they each pull out some form of dagger or blade and hold it eye-level*

okay! nana u can't catch me wittle spritie!

*follows Dspice* don't be so sure Catc..

SPLIT UP! *i charge for the one sprite in the middle*

*follows after dspice, too* i know but it is fun though! *charges for the one on the right and flick him with ,my tial to get him to try and follow me and i go a few yards and stop and breathe deeply and blows out an icy mist that goes straight for the sprite*

*goes for the one on the left and tackles it, avoiding the blade*

*i grab the one in the middle and carry it down with me* (i could have said "i tackled it" but what fun is that? )

( ) *the ice heads closer to the sprite, but he dodges, but a little bit of the mist hits his leg and he winces as his leg freezes*

(xD) *blows a blue water droplet on the fire sprite and it hisses* *steam rises off, but barely*

*the sprites stab and attack wildly, not thinking about what they're doing* *i throw the sprite at the ground and hover, watching him fall* *thinks*

hehe! i have found thy weakness! *breathes the mist again and he hisses as it hits him again*

*breathes out a freezing wind and the sprite stiffens*

*i sigh loudly* oh man... *i dive after the falling sprite and catch him with my tail* *i set him gently on the ground* *his eyes tear up as he looks at me* *the other two sprites turn to look, ignoring the attacking dragons*

(oh shoot i have to go to bed now.... so goodnight! *hope rushes into the bedroom to get the best sopt, which is in the middle of the bed* ) *slashes towars the sprite before leaving*

(bye catc! *glomps her and hope*) *the sprite's lower lip quivers and he speaks in a tiny voice* y-you saved me... and i almost d-died... but you saved me! *the sprite runs up to me and... hugs me.* >< ????

(aww, goodnight! *glomps*) *stops and looks over too* whoa...

*the sprite fighting jade flies down to me and hugs me too* >< WHAT IS GOING ON?! we were fighting you cuz you tried to kill us, and now you're... hugging me?! SOMEONE EXPLAIN WTF IS GOING ON!

*lands with a huge grin* apparently you are now their hero. XD

-__- *i make the mistake of growling, which causes the sprites to giggle* ugh... ok so... um... sprite: we were simply testing you to see if you would be worthy enough to battle The Evil One. you and the other dragon have passed! congrats! *the sprite grins*

WHA....... *stares* oh jolly joy isn't that just absolutely fantastic..

*i push the sprites off me* ok, ok... we'll fight this "evil one" for you.. just... don't hug me. xP sprite: okay! *grins widely and flies off* *the other 2 follow* please, follow us!

*shrugs and follows behind* depends how evil this Evil One is..

psssh, no big deal. it'll be a peice of cake! *the sprites murmer amongst themselves* *i sigh* well, i mean, he can't be that hard, can he?

maybe! *grins* next thing you'll know the sprites will ask you to stay with them..XD

*i growl, but stop myself* dont give them any ideas! *the sprites look back occasionally to check on us* *after a couple of minutes of flying, we come upon a small bush* *the sprites crawl in* oh man, you don't expecy a couple of dragons to be able to fit in THAT! sprite: trust me! *i roll my eyes and crawl in*

*grins and follows suit into the bush, but gets whacked by Dspice's tail* OOF!

looks like karma strikes aga- *i stop, for in front of us stands an entire city, large-scaled, making us seem VERY tiny* *i stand up* *the sprites grin* sprite: welcome to our city! *i stare* this place is huge...

O.O second that one..

*the sprites giggle (a very annoying sound >< ) and they motion for us to follow them down a street*

*other sprites peek out at us as we walk down* holy shmoly...

*nervous cough* *the sprites lead us to a building shaped like a perfect square* *inside is one room, painted black walls and floor* *in the middle of the room is a small white box that seems to pulsate with energy* *two of the sprites are trembling and they stay outside* *the one inside with us is frowning and shaking slightly* sprite: in that box... it's a... *ahemahem* it's something you'll need. *the sprite runs out, chattering about something scary and evil* me: O.O okaaay... *i step towards the box*

erm...*stares* is it alive?? *peers closely and watches Dspice*

*i shiver* i don't know... *sighs* ok, ok, i can do this... *i take a deep breath and walk to the box* *i kneel down and reach towards it* *shiver* GAH! this is so... weird! >< *i take the box and stand up* ok.. *i walk back to jade* you want to open it or me? 0.o

since you had enough courage to take it, i'll open it. *stares at it for a moment more, then slowly opens the lid* *gets an icy feeeling on her back*

*a bright flash fills the room, and the next thing we know, we're standing in a wasteland full of dead grass, dark grey skies, and thunderclouds in the distnace* o.0 okay then... this is odd...

*drops the lid* whoa...well, this is welcoming. *looks around her* (it's raining, it's pouring, my old rabbit is snoring!!)

( o.0 ?!?!?!) heh heh, really... *i bend down and pick up the lid, putting it back on the box* *the box, closed once again, starts pulsating with energy* im pretty sure if we open the box again we'll go back to the sprite-world... *i look at jade, smirking* and im sure we don't want to try it out... *i chuckle* *a warm breeze blows by* *something in the distnace rumbles*

i certainly hope we'll go back to the spirit world. *listens to the rumbling* so then, where to? ( my rabbit snores..and it is really raining. *nods her head sagely*)

*i look around* *on the ground, there are marks where something must have been dragged* well, sources say that way- *points in direction of tracks* *it starts lightly raining*

off we go down the brown dirt road! *looks up and tries to stop the rain, but can't* weird..

heh heh, brown dirt road... *starts walking* *the rain slowly pours harder* *the rumbling gets louder* well, looks like it can't get any worse...

*lightening strikes in the ground in front of us leaving a black dent* no don't say that!

i mean, looks like it couldn't get any better! *shivers* *up ahead, there is a large black pile of metal objects* *there is a hole in the front, maybe an entrance?.....*

*sniffs, then hangs back* no, i don't want to go in there...*shakes her head furiously*

oh, come on, how bad could- um, i mean, it's not that bad... besides, the "evil one" is probably in there, so all we have to do is go in there and kick his booty!

*shakes her head* no! *scales are turning golden*

jade, calm down, it'll be ok.. *something from the pile of metal explodes... literally* *sharp metal peices of who-knows-what fly everywhere* DUCK! *i tackle jade to the ground*

*snarls as one hits her in the leg* WHAT IN ? NAME WAS THAT?!

>< i have no clue.. *metal peices fall all around* *the pile of black metal is gone: like, completely* okay, glad we didn't go in there... *brushes off metal sharapnel*

*is growling and snapping uncontrollably* yeah..but there was something in it. didn't you see something??

umm, no, i was face-down in the dirt trying not to get impaled. ><' *offer my hand to jade*

*accepts it* thanks...*shivers* but something made it explode...all i saw was a blur...*shakes herself and notices she's gold* oh gosh...i'm really scared. i only turn gold if i'm scared...

*pulls up jade* heh heh yeah but you look cool in gold. it suits you. *something growls from somewhere, but the dust hasn't cleared* uh... what...

*blinks* but that's not a good sign....*snaps her head to the growl* Dspice?? please tell me that was your oh-so-hungry-stomach...
