Wood Elf Forest Dragon, Autumn theme

Just in case anyone was wondering what a forrest dragon looks like in the fall :) I used the beauty of Autumn in central New York for the color scheme, and tried to visualize the dragon as more like an earth elemental, i.e. trying to make it composed entirely of thing found in nature. Granite for the claws and teeth, white birch for the wings and stomach scales, ancient wood for skin, etc... Some success, some failure. I also felt inclined to paint up the wood elf rider (it seems like most of these on this site are rider-less), but I dropped some of the more "flamboyant" trappings (like the huge feather, what was GW thinking?). As always comments and critiques are welcome.

This is awesome... I really like the wings. The granite effect doesn't come across so hot but who really cares. Great work.
