Zoom in for detail, please.

My sister and I drew this together.

The dragon is pretty much the castle itself. He's like the engine while the people live inside him...I guess. hehe. It's sort of like a parasite vs. host thing, but the parasite is good in this case. Organic and mechanical.
There are wings at the bottom to sort of help it "keep afloat."
~Done in pencil and Staedtler ink and Prisma colored pencil. Enjoy. :)

(The scan was a horrible ><..)

**We were inspired by the movie (and book) Howl's Moving Castle. (Myazaki's movies are always beautiful and amazing!) i don't think i spelled his name right...>>

Thats one of the most intricate things that I've ever seen in my life. Very original. Will there be a colored version?

Oh I love this! The detail is amazing. I like the little people in the balloons. A wonderful idea, you and your sister should be very proud - it's certainly very imaginative and original! :clap:

It's an instant Fav!
