Hi! The dragon definitely looks like it would come from a fantasy game. The silhouette is nice, too. Given this dragon's anatomy I would assume it can't clean itself all too well. Dragons are also known to live for a long time. It also seems to be a type that swims underwater. Considering all those points I would expect to be more dirt/greenery/growth of small organisms on its body (including the gems). I also would expect gems and crystals to let through but also reflect more light than a common stone. I didn't touch bedding of the shell but it also could use more texture and values check.

i decided to combine this and previous month's challenges, i loved making dragons as a kid. i toned down the over the top design and tried to focus on believability, i still feel like the gems and crystals on its back are missing something. it kind of looks like they've been glued to the shell. any feedback would be appreciated;
