Illusor Sky Dragon by Stratadrake

Illusor Sky Dragon

Description

How poetic it is to both start and end the year 2005 with artwork of dragons: This is Illusor, a variant breed of my feathered Sky Dragons. Despite the large and beautiful train of feathers down his back and tail, this breed is still a flyer on equal par with other Sky Dragons.

It is said that the females of this breed do not bear the large train of tailfeathers, but that they do share similar colors and patterns to their feathered pelt. And like all Sky Dragons, this breed can still store and release electrical energy for use as a weapon.

Inspired by a small carpet with a peacock design I have hanging on my wall; one glance and I knew I had to make a dragon based on it.

Wow Strata that is really good! How many colours are blended in there O_o That is some amazing detail aswell and the feathers look so realistic. Just a small question. Is all of the tail curving to our left ? I just got a little confused because of the extra (feather?) part curving over to the right. It's probably really obvious -_-
Anyways as I said it's great Strata!

This is excellent work. It almost looks like a real bird. I like the way you drew the feathers and the ground. You must be a really great artist.
