This reminds me of the artwork that used to be in that booklet inside the War Of The Worlds album ( The old LP I am not sure if they still have it in the cd version) ...same era and atmosphere. Typical Baron painting style though Love the idea too. Top work again.

+7 really nice, good colors and the ambience is well done the only thing that is missing is the awfull smell of death and dragons blood, but you can't draw it

nice one !

Love it!, nice and atmospheric. Apart from the incredible details on the dragon and focal points, I really like the treatment you have given the sky, very impressionistic which really appeals to me. Top marks from me.

Fantastic work Simon, The decaying process is very well and convincing rendered Love the clothing that tells a specific period in time. Would have liked to see flies hovering around and some damp or something like that to accentuate the stink and smell etc + 10!

great idea, top marks from me

What a tragic painting..I love it. As usual, the way you work with light and colors intrigues me to no end!

Sharkh20  05/26/08 @826

Wow...! +10

SandraS  05/27/08 @606

I'm so amazed how you are always able to convey a story in your paintings. The fact that you made the dragon look very undefinable and dead, rotten, is a unusal and fantastic way to show of the else so majestetical dragon. But, I guess it had its great days too... long time ago.

greatnesss!!!

curlyhair  05/27/08 @769

So sad and cynic at the same time.. Great coloring as always!

henning  05/27/08 @874

Wow, this is beautiful, Simon Especially the hazy landscape at the back, and the nice and soft light. Full score from me, and not just because I love top hats, but you've got a nice setting here combining the dragon with an era we can familiarize ourselves with. It makes it a lot more interesting, and also more realistic and therefore sad on behalf of the dragon fella

I agree with what Andy said about the War of the Worlds album, it has that feel. Excellent work Simon. The trees and back round are all supurb. The atmosphere is spot on and so is the sense of time/setting (ie Victorian era). The actual design of the Dragon is nice but I feel it would have had more impact if the head was clearer. The people look a little arkward, slightly stiff. Overall, this is one of your strongest works, the concept really captures the imagination.

Great Victorian atmosphere.

razpna  05/28/08 @717

great!

IraMelanox  06/01/08 @888

this is the first original dragon painting i've seen in years... i love the soft light, the wintery background... +10

trevorm  06/02/08 @618

This is soo cool. Love the concept, the time period, and the painting itself. Very well done.

Oh wow!

SqueeJohnny  06/25/08 @111

Holy jeez this is awesome. Added to my faves ^_^ Its very very beautiful.

alex780  06/26/08 @458

yeah!! great mood and colors! +10

Wormwood  07/01/08 @037

The still atmosphere is spot on.

Retrograde  08/14/08 @501

I love it, absolutely love it. The quite curiosity of the "educated" men sets the perfect mood. The birds in the tree are a great detail as well.

Jane  08/21/08 @782

You manage to tell us what the men are saying, just by their positions and how they act in this still moment. The sinister foggy sky and forest helps give the viewer a sad feeling over the dragon's end.

I love you work, great illustration. I wonder since most culture around the world have legions of slaying dragons, could these mythical creature actually been dinosaurs , that were hunted for sport, until they were hunted into extinction ? Stephen
