"...He could feel the pull...feel his soul tugging, compelling him on to a path that so few had followed. Was this the way, was this what he wanted all along? A part of him fought the feelings churning inside...but still his soul pulled...pulled untill his mind realized that he could not fight any longer...he could not fight what he was, he could not fight against what he desired...the soul of a dragon is a powerful force and soon he would find that he could do nothing more then give into the beast within..."

This is a peice I did for my friend, Dragon's, birthday (yes, that is him in the picture xD ) :3 I was greatly inspired by a photograph of him taken by the OH so very talented Jaqui Wujec - You can find more of her work over at: [link] - If you roll over the image above you can see the original photo she took that I had painted over for this peice.

I guess you could call this a photo manipulation...but I decided that there was so much work done to the original image that I'd place it under the digital art catagory instead.

But well...this was another experiment for me...and I am rather fond of the results. Unfortunatly, though, the original comp I did this on used an LCD monitor...so this image may appear REALLY dark to you...a lot of the detail was lost...which is rather upsetting...but it's only like that on some computers. Hopefully it's not tooo bad o_o;;

Anyways...yea...that is all XD Enjoy folks! And make sure you stop by Jaqui's page and give her mad props for her awsome photography talent ^__~

I don't mind that you used the image in such a manner, but I do mind that you didn't give any credit back to me for being the original artist for what you used in your piece. If you plan to keep this on dA, then I require you add credit to me in the description and a link back to my gallery or back to the original piece. Thank you for letting me know that you used my artwork, just make sure you credit myself, and any other artists you lift from, in the future.

ooooh... That sign on his glove.. it kinda looks like Gemini's sign!I wonder if it means something... like... that... they are twins..of..the same fate *Q*
What else could I say? I could write a bunch of pages describing how awesome this picture is, but there are many others who already did it xD.
Amazing job!

~AnnaMcMoose Oct 9, 2012

Oh my God, it's beautiful. Do you perhaps sell your art at any conventions?

*sayda Oct 12, 2012

I used to, but I have not been to a convention as a dealer in a while. I may again in the future, but generally I stick to local conventions. The two I generally attend is Anime Central, and Wizard World Chicago.

I love this pic, I favorited and hope it never disappears. It reminds me of a character I have in a PBP in pathfinder who is bonded to a Silver Dragon.

This is really awesome and i'd love to commission you some day.

~CosmikKitty Jul 19, 2012

I loved this so much i used it as my background for my ps3 <3
