That's really good! I have this obsession with drawing animal feet and I love those feets on her. Also really nicely don't on the wings.
Pretty picture :)

Pretty cool! I like the Eland Horns...
Also, that tail tip looks pretty badass to me!

Awesome! Too few dragons have horns inspired from African antelopes.

Thanks for all the compliments.
Glad you enjoy it.

The drawing was intended for one of my sisters friends.
I wanted it feminine but not girly.
I find the sharper face more feminine and attractive.
The horns most people use (bull, ram, stag etc.) were to butch for this project.
And I might have been subconsciously influenced by the hunting trophies
of my close friend's father.

I'm not sold on the weird Giraffe things, but the bottom picture is awesome.

Yes, might be difficult to find though. I've seen eland horns before, and also kudu, springbok, impala, gazelle, gemsbok, and even hartebeest... although I suspect quite a few of them are more of a chance resemblance than the artist's intention.
