going back to the land of ice and snow

Whilst the sleeping tempest gathers might

Yay! Finally finished this thing.

Scanning this just doesn't work, too many reflections from the gold (as seen here).  

The camera worked a little better; but the gold always exaggerated every stray ray of light, with a dark me-sized reflection in the middle.  I finally figured out that all I needed to do was cut a little lens hole in the middle of a sheet of drawing paper to block out my reflection and get an even reflection, and angle it in a slightly north-easterly direction about a foot behind a cloud-diffused ray of southern sunlight.  Whew.  I need to get a better photo setup.

Still had to photoshop it a bit, but it turned out more or less looking like it does in real life.  Well, it's way cooler than I could capture, the dragons scales reflect the light as you walk past it.  Oh dear, don't tell me I'm going to start posting videos of drawings :P
