Description

A dragon flies above a steam engine as a wolf runs. I have combined three of my interests into one drawing!

What does a train, a dragon, and a wolf all have in common? Real or mechanical, they are sure of themselves and know where to go and doesnt second doubt their decision. They are cocky if you will as they strut what they have, and you can bet the house they have it! They capture the attention where ever they roam and stop all, even for a split second, in awe of the power they so vividly posses and command.

They spark fantasy and myth. The locomotive engineer was the greatest job to ever want that even presidents looked up and dreamed of being in the cab at the throttle of a fast passenger train, wishing it was them. Wolves howl, warning of a rising large harvest moon. Dragons living in places no man dare go are but a few examples.

Sadly, I can only go ON AND ON about the steam engine. The dragon, well, its a dragon. He has wings, fangs, breathes fire, its a dragon! Okay, Its my dragon Falkener. The wolf, well, shes a artic wolf. She has fangs, paws, and howls, her name is Snow. Other than character development, what more details can I give?? Seriously, what more!

The other dragon, if you will, is the steam engine. Hey, it breaths fire, exhails smoke and comes at you full speed with no attempt at ever backing down.

Steam fans will note that this is a 4-8-4 Northern. Ive modernized it a bit...reusing some of the exhaust, sporting ditch lights and roller bearings on all axles. She is also the devil...666. #66 of an order of 100 in the 600 class, all never built. But coming straight from my mind!

I originally drew this as a Pennsy engine but since I have a wolf and dragon in this drawing, I changed it and made it "The Transylvania Railroad". Ive also, ahem, Frankenstein the engine. The nose being of a Nickle Plate Road Berk and the body of a Pennsy Texan.

This is a combination of pencil and Adobe CS4...mix media... I was going to color just the background and forground and the flame of the dragon...well...I decided to do it allllll!
