Warrior girl dragon

This piece really speaks to me. The woman is beautiful! She is strong, bold, sexy and very sure of herself. Her style is realistic but yet somewhat illustrative. The dragon perched on her shoulders is more fantastical in look, but yet, seems to fit well. It has more of a cartoon look to it, but yet, it gives off an aura of strength.

The warrior's outfit is very nicely rendered, simple, seductive. The arm shield is a nice touch. Seeing a little bit of her bare nipples adds another nice touch, it's sexy without being raunchy. Her face has an air of mystery, mostly thanks to the elaborate shading in the hair. I can't see that adding color to this would make it better, it seems to work well as a black and white art piece.
