IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
The bird takes flight as the dragon fails in it's attempt to kill it. The
dragon
starts 
in hot pursuit of the bird. Together they fly at high speeds over trees and
through canyons.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 
I created the bird out of Bezier Patches and blobs. So is the dragon. I used a
lot of CRAND for
the textures. The bird was quite hard and the dragons wings took a lot of
fiddling with. I dont 
see how the dragon or the bird would be able to be made WITHOUT moray. It was a
challenging scene.
The lighting was hard. I placed the trees randomly with QBASIC (so I could move
any if I wanted).
If your going to try and use my dragon or my bird in your pics I'd like to know
because to me it'd
be a complement.
