One word that comes to mind is "twisted".

Whoa that's a long fellow!
What's the name of that snake in Norse mythology that can coil around the earth several times? Jorgunmander? This guy's got him beat.

I'm glad that parts of its body disappear behind others, in shadow, because I'd spend too long tracing the forms of each dragon. Maybe it wasn't intentional, but I get a strong underwater feeling from this. The sun and its rays look like they're hitting a surface, especially with the other lighter lines all above. Then the haze and especially the plants make me think ocean.

Aaaaaanyway... :)

The creatures are lovely with sleek heads, subtly shaped, and pretty nicely detailed long bodies, and the curling and flowing of their bodies makes for a lovely and intriguing display. The scales look great with how you shaded the pattern itself to match their bodies so well.

It's good that you take a break from the ponies once in a while, especially since your original works are deeply beautiful.

This is a pretty cool design. The pattern really sort of pulls it together.

So marvelous. If this is a daily sketch, I'm jealous of your ability to create so well, so fast.

The dragon's body is cohesive with the greater blue of the water, so I wonder: when you painted the dragon, did you brush with high opacity after choosing the precise color you wanted, or did you brush with a low opacity and blended the dragon's color into the blue background? If…that's not too poorly worded. XD
