I think I've seen that dragon somewhere. Matter of fact, I'm almost positive I have.

The painting it came from...the one I'm thinking of had some books. The dragon was sitting on a window ledge, I think. There were skulls, too. I can't remember it that well. Bah.

I do like this.

Very nice.

When I first read your comment I began to panic thinking I had forgotten to mention where I got the dragon from in my description as the original artist of the dragon (Bob) would of been peeved if I didn't credit him as I had promised. Whew!
Thank you for the wonderful comment Doll, i'm glad you liked this one. The original dragon pic I used for reference is by Bob Eggleton, I was stumped for a dragon design and he was kind enough to let me use his dragon. He's a great guy, you should see his work, its amazing.

  Yeah, it was the fact that you mentioned referencing that sparked my attention. Then I got a better look at the dragon, and it hit me - I think I've seen this before!
  
  I found what I think was Bob Eggleton's website, but it wasn't anything like the site I remember finding the painting I think I've seen this dragon before on. (WHEW! What a mouthful! Did you get all that? )
  
  And so my journey began. And after much searching, I ask. Is THIS your dragon?

  Yes, the dragon you found is the one I used. Its a great dragon and i'm just glad Mr Eggleton let me use it. I was lucky enough to meet him at a fantasy art exibit here in San Francisco and even luckier when he gave me permission.
