dragon looks much nicer after you added the other wings, the other dragon in the distance is getting a bit lost and maybe looking like a bit of fluff on the main dragon
as far as the composition my eye goes from the dragons head and up the ridge of the mountain off the page
the cliff shapes are pretty uninteresting
could be a nice piece if worked up even further.
i feel that way about allot of your work.
its just my view but commonly i think you dont have a good visual read in allot of your pieces, theres often eye catching spots of high chroma/ value contrast where theres nothing really going on.
you wanna let people know where to look usually
the contrast of colour value and soft hard edges is too evenly distributed that areas of focus are vague
some pieces definately better than others, the snake head was nice and the frog pretty good.
if you tighten up the edges and up the contrast in places you want the eye to focus on it will instantly up the quality of your images.
i tihnk you should also work on pushing back parts that are more eye catching than you want.
try looking away from your image, look back at it and see where your eye naturally goes in the first second you look at it. as much as possible try not to have a conscious bias because you are aware already of whats going on in the image.
you have allot of good things going on but a look thats lacking finish and control over the read
hope that helps and its not intended to get you down
i just think you can learn allot from wracking your brain trying to work something up to a higher finish
but its just from my view. if you disagree thats all good
peace brother
