Hi @ all :wave:!
My very first news article :boogie::dance::boogie:

Now to the contest ;).

CONTEST

I decided me for an dragon contest because I like dragons.
Here something about dragons!

THE MYTHOLOGY DRAGON!
Dragons (lat. draco, greek. drákon „Snake“ ) are called serpentine, usually winged hybrid beings that are described in mythology and fairy tales. In Eastern and Western creation myths the dragon is a symbol of chaos, a god and misanthropic ogre who is holding back the water and the fruitful and threatens to devour the sun and moon.

The Dragon must be overcomed and killed in battle by a hero or God, so that the world may develop or persist.

The East Asian dragon is, however, an ambivalent creature with mostly positive characteristics. He is a rain and a good luck charm, a symbol of fertility and the imperial power.

Some general informations about the dragon for some inspiration ;).

The rules are only a guideline. They don´t say how you shall to draw a dragon. But the dragon is a must for your drawing of course ;).
