hey, man, thanks for your comment, and yes you are 100% right - my element needs to be shown. I have an idea in mind, but i cant paint it right now as i want to be sure my forms and overall shape designs are satisfying me. cheers!
@tianlei
YOOO What about making dragon itself on fire, like of fire elemnt?! Not just breathing it, but eminating fire from inside it body from head, inbetween scales? could be cool! 
yeah basically i do want to make a cracks and the lava oozing through them, but it needs to be a scene of dragon's death, so the fire and lava would be blood like consistency
Rules say your character should be either attacking or defending. Don't forget we have to incorporate the element logos as well.
true, as i said earlier
the idea is - dragon protecting his friend from deadly attack, blocking damage with his huge body. its a story of self-sacrifice for a loved one.
and the logo should be there:)
Sorry, I missed you said that.
It's just that it doesn't look like a protective pose at the moment. I know it's still in early stages, but maybe have the wings held more around the human character?
thanks for pointing it out, i'll try to make the pose unambiguous! cheers!
I suppose it depends what the attack that's being defended against is. If it's a hail of arrows that guy's Swiss cheese - too many gaps for something to get through.
What if you swapped the guy to the other side of the dragon's head, so he's more underneath, like the bottom photo?
so i keep building up my image and came up with this variant
but it looks too cartoony for my taste, and i went too far from initial mood and color so i decided to go back and try color comp i choose before:
I love this.. the composition is really strong
thank you, man, ill work hard to continue strong:)
a little bit of progress: still working on forms and color
wonderful! But at first I didn´t understand that he is protecting her, now I do, and now I think it´s even more awesome
Really cool composition and colours !
It would be nice to see some fire sparkles (or something like that) next wings, maybe ?
It also could bright the most darkest places of your artwork (why not in the grass as well, just a little ?).
Good luck !
progress so far 
How you capture light is gorgeous 
thank you very much @threees
A lilttle bit of progress
As much as I love this, my friend, I still strongly feel that aspect of defence is weakly articulated in this piece! I see that dragon is shielding her from something that is falling above, but it just seems to me that she is not in a right place (not shielded enough by the body of the dragon, she is not bellow him, but lies near him hugging his head).
Perhaps you should play a little bit with composition and pose of a girl.
But still your colors and lighting are freaking amazing, no doubt about that!
