Emeraldus Ab'Synte

This is Emeraldus Ab'Synte, who like my previous beast Kurundamtherion, draws power from gemstones. In Emeraldus case, she draws her strength from forms of beryl, though none so much as the Emerald from where she gets her name. Her surname derives from absinthe, as when humans first described her to others they dismissed the tales of the "Emerald Beast" as hallucinations brought upon by the potent green drink. She is a virtuous creature, but avoids contact with mankind, as a seven foot tall lizard in jewelled armor tends not to be welcomed in open arms.

This is Adobe Photoshop CS. I have been gradually picking away at this for a few months, I am ashamed how long it took to finish it. I believe I will delve into some traditional drawings and paintings for a project or two, I am really quite tired of working on this.
