Paladin of Bahamut vs Blackscale Assassin

Description

Original drawing was loosely inspired by an old Dragon magazine article about draconic stuff - including packs and armor for dragon characters. I'm really trying to do better about working stronger contrast into my painting.

This is a great action piece, and I found myself thinking how glad I was the Paladin had noticed the assassin in time! I really like the flashes of color on the dragon scales and the tail-axe.

Regarding the dragon armor, give then orientation and size of dragons I can't help but wonder if it would be more effective to have straps / thinner armor on the spine and more side and neck plates. Those are easier to reach and soft. Still, covering the spine is certainly important. Maybe the dragon is saving up for better barding!

Light and laughter,
