Not bad, but maybe a little less beasts would make this even better?

good artwork, but i have to say that (no offence) it just reeks of geek porn or something similiar. fantasy scantily clad women fighting mythical beasts? it seems like something a nerd would dream up in maths class.
there is no doubting your skill, chris, but perhaps a bit less of these ladies? your best work imo was the grim reaper one! now THAT ruled!!!

The red in the beast's eyes distracts a lot.

Thanks for your comments. Metalhead, no worries I'm gonna work on something more in the vein of Time's Up (Grim Reaper)... the girls are used for many reasons, mainly because my wife and I make those characters for Poser (3D Program) and therefor I can promote them as well as making art with them (which I like to do anyway :) ). I'll post an old work more dark now... maybe you'll like this one better, it has no ladies :).

P.S. : As for this image, she doesn't fight the dragons, she owns them... which will probably make you even more furious... hehe, or jealous maybe... just kidding. I was never good at math, but I was drawing a lot during the course :).

I wonder why anyone would wear armor cut and shaped to favor a figure, but anyone controlling dragons doesn't really need armor, hmm?

I like. You are quite the artiste, Chris.

One thing, however: The dragon to the lower-right looks like he has a gigantic arm jutting out of his back. Upon closer inspection, it's a tree, but that's something you may want to look at.

Good stuff, don't stop the ladies, the ladies are good! (even if they do have massive thighs!).

When you say you make figures for Poser, do you mean for the actual program, as add-ons...?

Yes they are add-ons to Poser, based on DAZ Victoria 3 (so u need that one to make those characters work). My wife and I have more than 10 characters like this... she's mainly the one making characters though, I mostly help with additional contents or fantasy textures.

This is very nice, one of your best :)
And I don't think that the red in the beast's eyes distracts at all.

I personally don't mind that much to see ladies on art covers...Chris, you do a WONDERFUL job !!!! No matter if it has ladies or not !!! :lol: :lol:
And I like the red eyes...yes, it catches attention, but that's exactly what I like because here, it's not "too flashy" or something like that. It's just "enough". I like the effect ! Anyway. :)
