Done with colour pencil on black paper.

Hi. I'm going to attempt to give you some constructive criticism. Hopefully useful.
I really like this piece, for many reasons, one is the use of media: pencil! Colour pencils, you cannot rub out and in hole it takes some skills to use colour pencils and the use of a dark background helps to lower the tonal value which in this piece works! Your shading is fantastic, you can feel the depth of the muscles in the dragons and the stones, and the grass is wonderful!
In my opinion, and I'm no professional, I just study art and design and that's not yet at the highest grades. My advice on this piece is, though you've done very well with the shading and you get the emotions, but to improve, everyone can always keep learning, is the source of the lightening, you probably already have thought this, don't get me wrong there's shading and lightening, I just think the source of the lightening in the sky: the moon light, isn't strong enough compared to the lightening used in the rest of the picture. There's no light flare/light shining onto these pieces, basically, I would make the moon more noticeable/stronger and maybe the lightening on the clouds.
Saying this, this is an older piece of yours and you've probably already improved.
I hope this was helpful/useful.
Well done!
