Wow Anthony, those pics are very cool!  Now I'm starting to see the
advantage of ldrawing and povraying, as both dragons turned out looking very
menacing;  they looked shinier and more sleek than before.  I can see how
much easier it would be than trying to pose your (real-life) dragons in
those poses you had.

And the lightning and fire effects?  Simply awesome!  I really like the way
the lightning wraps around various parts of Tel'Karak's body, and how the
flame isn't a big cloud, but just a controlled stream.  You really portayed
both scenes in the best way possible, and I congratulate you on taking the
time to lDraw your dragons, as it really paid off.
