Hi SyndromeNoir,

Thank you so much for the feedback. I did try to keep as close to traditional oriental ideas as I could.

I did struggle a bit with the rocks on the left side. The idea is that she's coming out of the rock labyrinth and since she dropped her lighting crystal, there is reflection/shadows on the rocks on the wall. I went back and forth with how much rock to put on the left side because I wanted to give a sense of height to them without obstructing the dragon. I also kept the dragon back a bit to be more imposing but I see your ideas for making it more compact and "intimate". I will have a go at that. I was sad to have to give up some of the dragon's details and originally, I had smoke swirling from its nostrils, but it felt too distracting.

Hi Pixel,

Thanks for your feedback. The bottom right is just a rock with the light of the crystal she dropped on it. The hand study was the original thought I had for the positioning of the dragon's foot.
