Impact
My first look of this image was very scenery. The eyes are automatically drawn to the fiery aspects of the artwork, the arrow-like shapes on the dragon's throat and horns as well as the fire peeking out of its maw. Then the eye, going over to the other dragon in the back. It's clear that there's a lot of impact here on the first look, that's +3 stars in this sector and due to their design another 3,5 stars in terms of Originality.
Sadly, the eye is drawn away from the character and dragon in the middle right, the blur and high value rather let them blend in with the background rather than letting the view draw to it as well. It is unfortunate in a way because those characters actually confirm that there's a story behind the picture. In my opinion, there always has to be some soul to an artwork, not just skin and bone. You conveyed it nicely with adding those characters to the image, it is intriguing to search for clues of that story in the picture. +2 for Technique, +1 for originality
Now here's where I have to complain about the vision. Right now, I'm seeing your artwork in a resolution of about 1200x900 pixels, everything looks stunning and exciting, but as soon as I zoom in and look out for details... I get disappointed. Don't get me wrong here, it is a very well done painting, but there just isn't much to be seen in a close up, which is why I have to ask why you even considered to upload it in original size... 1600 pixels wide is quite right as I see it. I can't put that on your account, though, because it still looks wonderful from slightly farther away. The colours are nicely chosen and the details on the dragons pop; another +1 on impact, +3,5 on vision and +3 on technique.
In conclusion:
You show great skills here! This is an epic image with lots of scenographic understanding. Don't hold back from including vital characters in your artworks to convey a meaningful story and put some focal points on or around them to make them reach out from the rest of the image and decide in which size or resolution you want to upload it here to get the best of your showcase!
Sincerely,
