Thanks! Thought afterwards I should have added a couple of butterflies, but there is probably enough going on the picture the way it is.

I worry about HER indeed, hope Missy kept her sword close to hands....memory beeing a strange think, I am reminded that supposedly the best crusaders would display their skills by beheading a camel in one swift cut....

Its why there are no camels in this picture - they obviously knew about this and headed for the hills!

Thanks! From the look in the larger dragons eye, I dont think the woman will be in the picture much longer though!

Thanks Vin. I had a pretty clear idea in my head how I wanted the lighting to 'feel' and was pretty happy with the end result.
