WIP: "Dragon Lord Spike"

[SawmillTurtle 56]

Last night I began piecing together an AU work that I code named "Dragon Lord Spike." Spike is not the Dragon Lord in this image, but he is a feral dragon who was never adopted by ponies. In the scene, Spike looks on as Princess Twilight appears through a portal in the sky. He is standing in an area of Equestria that the dragons have attacked and set on fire.

 

I call this a work in progress, though the majority of the work has been done. There are some things that need to be touched up, like the alignment of Twilight's wings and the light level on Spike. I'm also not fond of the area around Spike's neck. Something about that seems off to me.

 

 

Any feedback you can give would be much appreciated. Anything that you might notice that needs to be fixed? This is the first time I've ever used image editing to create a scene like this from scratch, so I'm sure there are plenty of errors I've overlooked.

 

UPDATE EDIT:

Updated this with the image in the actual post. I've gotten no response at all on this, so I'm assuming it is because I provided the image as a link.
