Beowulf's Bane
“Quickly, the dragon came at him, encouraged. As Beowulf fell back; its breath flared, and he suffered, wrapped around in swirling flames -- a king before but now a beaten warrior. None of his comrades came to him, helped him. His brave and noble followers; they ran for their lives, fled deep in a wood. And only one of them remained, stood there, miserable, remembering, as a good man must, what kinship should mean.”
My entry for Bio-Cup Redemption Round 2.
Theme: Regional Mythology and Folklore
Sub-theme: Western Europe.
Wyverns and fire breathing dragons appear in European folklore and literature, including the story of Beowulf.

This guy was awful to photograph, and certainly isn't as polished as I would like. I am very happy with the wings and head though.
