This makes me want to cry.

The texture and transparency of the honey on the bottom of the spoon is perfect.

Beautiful, but I wish it were bigger so we could better see the details.

My pick for the win. Sources?

Not sure I've seen sea foam before. This contest has been done so many times, it's hard to be original. Good job.

They look a *little* flat to me.

Subtle, but I like it.

Pretty. I almost did something very very similar.

Adorable. Where can I get one?

It's a cute idea, but I doubt most people will spend time searching for the dragons before voting.

I really like this one. A couple of comments:

The masking is a little sloppy. I can see some white speckles where the original lizard and tree branch didn't get erased all the way.

The textures of the wings and spines are too smooth and regular. You did a great job drawing them, but you might want to find a good texture and do a displacement filter to fit in on what you draw by hand.

Excellent. The overlapping straw is a great touch.

Without seeing the original, it's hard to know what you changed.

Next time, submit the file a little bigger and higher resolution so we can see the details better. Looks good from what I can see.

This would look a lot better if you matched up the colors of the different sources.

Just my opinion, but in a dragon contest, I think the dragon should be the the focus.

Lovely.

Very nice.

Good job with the transparency on the wings.

I like everything except one thing: the line of shadow through the bat's wing bears no relation to its new home.

Very nice. I almost used those bat wings on mine.

I think you used a few too many sources, and it wound up looking a little choppy. Pieces are excellent--the wings, the shadow--but it doesn't quite come together.

Overall, this looks very good. My biggest complaint is that the front legs don't look like they're in flight position. Also, I see a bit of a halo around the tail and nose.

This piece gives a lovely first impression, but when I zoomed in, the masking looked quite sloppy to me. Also, it would be better if one of the wings were distorted so that they're not exactly alike.

Dragons w/o front legs are called wyverns. I think.

It's cute, but the masking could be improved.
