Where does such a big dragon get those huge books?

from "the huge book store"!

The large print section. Duh :-P

Those are some big books. Did he make them himself?

Those books are huge. One to rule them all.. wait.. what?

*begins reading some of the books*

Its gonna take a helicopter just to turn the pages

Pfft. Harmless.

Perhaps, but I wouldn't mess with his books if I were you ;)

you're the size of his muzzle, dude. you're big, but he's bigger. but, it's true, draconder is indeed harmless. I can attest to that. big snuggly drgn.

your art continues to impress me ^^

thanks ^_^

You mean a collection of vast books?

XD

I guess he's not much into...



...light reading.

judging from his size though i might think a certain rex shared his cupcake collection with him

Prodigious girth!

and then some!

I thought those were buildings...

I looked closer and they were books.

Then I looked again and there really were buildings.

So really the amazing thing we have here are giant books, printed by some unnamed specialty publisher that caters to dragons.

What a sweet dragon. We could always use more knowledge. ^^

Rampaging 101? Man I wish I had saved all my notes from that class I'd totally let him copy

My goodness this is an wonderful picture, thank you kindly. I really like the attention to detail that you have put into this like you do with many of your works especially with cityscapes. Those books too, so many books I can read them all day and night, especially looking at some of those titles. The colour and shading is very nice and you caught Draconder's tone just right, very earthy and warm just like him.

This is a great picture and well worth the wait. I look forward to seeing what you will do in the future. Now, if you excuse me I am about to read to this city The Belgariad by David Eddings.

Thank you very much!

You're very welcome! Glad you like it! :)

where did you get such a great taste in books? :L

I blame my house-mates really as they have a library of good reads.

hehe, I have only read the The Belgariad and that's it. I want to read more of his works especially The Malloreon but I lack the first book in that series.

N'aww, what a generous dragon! :3 *starts reading*

Awww how thoughtful of him to share his knowledge with the town-folk!

cute

Not exactly light reading, hm ?

tl;dr

Knowledge is king

This calls for two things:

Napalm, and popcorn.

Whoa that's a serious cinematic looking dragon O.O
Hmm I suppose all those books are large print.

That must be every Hardy Boys adventure ever written!

Oh wow!!! I love this picture.
Enjoyable as always!

Now that's a library!
Impressive work Mac, simply love all the detail to everything. He seems quite content with all those books, would love to read some but there bigger then a city let alone me ^.=.^

wow very great pic Mac =D

drowning in knowledge D8

would be kinda funny if there was a library underneath his books.

He's such a nice dragon, sharing like that. ^..^

I like his width.

'Rampaging 101'

Haha :p

I love picking out the little details like the titles of the books; that one called "Rampaging 101" sounds particularly intriguing!

A very impressive pic, indeed!

EPIC!!

Awesome! he looks really really cool. hes one phenomenally GIGANTIC dragon, but hes also a very nice one too. hes such an awesome dragon. its really nice of him to share his literal MASSIVE collection of books with the city. kinda feel sorry for them when the got to get up and head out for work lol. i just want to know where these books where made. maybe you should take a page out of his book and feed your brain instead of your stomach, even though it looks like he feeds that plenty too lol. awesome job :)

how do people read them...how do you even flip a page? D:

*checks some of the titles and gasps* It's a cookbook! It's a cookbook!

How to serve Pokémon... how to serve Digimon... how to serve platypus... how to serve pidgeon... how to serve echidna... how to serve unicorn... oh, here it is, how to serve bear!

*snatches, flips pages* Hmm, "feed pancakes and waffles, pie, cookies and pies until it resembles Figure 2"

*looks at Fanimal* You got about another ton to go, dude... don't worry about it.

*throws book over his shoulder on the stack*

^2nd pies is pizza (pie)...

Pretty fucking awesome my dude!! Great work!!!

Another big dragon who loves and hoards books? My god, I thought I was alone!

I won't need my reading glasses! But maybe a seat up and back... and a big paw to turn pages...!

Whotta nice, big dragon...! So handsome... powerful but gentle... my kind of huge scaly!

Man, all the forests that had to die for that library!

Way to go, Macroceli! This image would make a wonderful poster to help promote "National Library Week"!

Big fat dragons are the best dragons

BIG Dragon! I wonder if any of those books are called How to Eat A City!

I find quite awesome! Good work, in his girth and into those books.

Now I know what this illustration reminds me of! I have several calendars with the surreal optical illusions of Rob Gonsalves, and your picture looks like it was designed by him! Many of the stacked books resemble the buildings of a busy metropolis (in other parts of the image). Absolutely beautiful rendering, dude!

I want a library that big! ^_^

Where the heck do you get the binding for books like them? o.o

There must a be a Huge book store near the city....

I love how some of the book-stacks actually LOOK like the buildings around them--gives a great sense of scale, and makes a nice gag. And, he's sharing them? What a nice guy!
