thanks so much for the crits EduardoGaray and zombie chinchilla!
@eduardo Yes this was definitely a Frazetta inspired illustration! As for the tangents i was sort of aware of all those horrible tangents around the sword handle but Ignored them :(
for the lighting, I was trying to make it look like the light source was somewhere behind the dragon but i guess the background doesn't help communicate that at all
@zombie chinchilla I was trying to use the hands of the three demons in the left conner to direct the viewer to the barbarian and have his arm lead the eye up to the dragon. I don't know if that works but I've just recently started doing illustrations 2 months ago, so composition is still difficult for me.
Thanks so much again for the crits :)
