thank you @tomi.taneli.lotjonen, @giagiastoons, @moirae for a feedback!
so finally after a lot of tweaking i getting closer to the feel i like, still long way to go though.
i wanted to make fireballs / stones readable but not distracting from the focal point, i tweaked the wings to feel more lizardish, introduced more "air" between my planes. Should find a new spot for an element emblem.
Honestly I feel like you've lost depth making the wings lighter, especially the one closer to us as it was coming out towards the camera. The texture does suit it but I think you should bring that darker value back to it so it doesn't blend into the mid ground as it currently is. A lot of the nice bits of grass and rock in the foreground also gave it a bit of variety and description for where they are, imo I don't think omitting those added to the piece. Either way, good job with the progress so far!
thanks for sharing you thoughts @nesokaiyoh but i like the wing as it is now, lighter closer to the mid ground, grass and rocks in the middle plane and foreground are gone for good and are not going to come back. im trying to bring everything together and a lot of these things are unnecessary and distracting making my image to fraction, im going to work from general to specific from now on if it makes sense.
That's perfectly fair enough! I just don't want you to lose that beautiful distinction of grounds and depth you had going. I do look forward to seeing it more finished though 
small progress update. should really start clean and render things out
upd
looking great
thank you @brandoncrampton1!
The idea with a dragon defending a human is amazing!
Hey ! I think I have never posted on your threat before, but I was watching it regularly. And damn I love your idea, and the last steps are really great ! (Also don't forget to reincorporate the fire emblem)
I love how your piece is going
thank you @Sergei_Pakhomov, @Oceane_Roh. @Oceane_Roh yeah, i still thinking about the best way to add an emblema in, i guess ill stick to drapery thing variant and put emblema on it
Hey! That is a lovely illustration and a great story! Cant wait to see that finished
I guess the stones on the right in the foreground are supposed to be an impact? I cant tell why - maybe its the flow of the dust, or I just dont understand it - but for me it looks a bit like the stones are swirled upwards.
hey @hendrix.simon, thanks for your comment. yeah, you understand it right - the stones, smoke and dust in the right corner are swirled upwards - it's just for composition purpose:)
Really loving her pose actually, full of emotion and expression and you'e handled the foreshortening and proportions well, good job
a small update:
cant decide - dragon with or without armor?
Very nice new touches !
To be honest that is hard to choose...like them both, but maybe the first is better ?
hey @mr_dessin thanks for reply. i feel like the first one is better as well. i do like how dragon and human begin to relate to each other with addition of armor, but without armor dragon seems to be more natural
Also I kinda feel you loose point of interest with helmet armor.
But maybe that's just me.
And agreed with your great point of view !
nice work, I prefer the one without the helmet. I love how his sail is only on the head, makes it look like a mohawk 
looking great
I don't think your dragon need a helmet, the design is already very efficient without it. I would probably be a bit too much. But in the other it's really cool to have a part of the drake who remind the girl outfit. It really help to understand the relation between these two, but then it's a different story
