My first work painted entirely on my digital Graphire tablet. :D

The two dragon-bat mounts I sculpted in clay before sketching them so I could study them in different lighting.

--------------
Escape from the Nach Drow City

Deep within the depths of Faerûn under the nation of Rashemen, lays the Living City, the central layer of the Nach‘Ilythiir or white skinned drow also known as the Pale Drow. The Living City, named so due to the massive and powerful underground creature that permeates the entire city, is little known on the surface. This is due mainly because no disloyal creature or slave has ever escaped, except that is for the human, Cie Tallaskyl.

Cie, as you can see here is on the back of a half breed dragon-bat, another of Midiuth’s many bio-magical creation experiments.

Cie was a promising Thayan red wizard’s apprentice captured and enslaved by the Nach Drow almost a decade ago in the Rashemen hills. They were mostly interested in his knowledge of the
Thayan wizards.

The Nach still search for Cie on the surface of Faerûn to this day, even within the dangerous halls of Thay itself. The Nach Drow can accomplish this due to their ability to change their skin tone at will from bone white all the way to ebony black giving them the ability to appear as drow or surface elf.

In the background of this picture you can see the prime central cavern to the Living City, its centerpiece being the great Castle Scorn, the residence of the creator of the Nach and the only route to the main body of the creature that lends the city its name.

Daily DeviationThere is a lot of dragon work in the Paintings & Airbrushing gallery, but I haven't seen quite like Cie's Escape by *PaleDrow before. This deviants gallery is captivating, glorious, and so fantastic. Be sure to stop on by! (Suggested by *DailyDeviants and Featured by `cosmosue)

Thanks!

I was wondering what resolution to post this at. The original is 6000 pixels wide and you can zoom in to practically the castle door and see the little people down there haha. But alas , I had to post it in this form.
