Personal project which I use for investigate a new version of "horsemen of Apocalypse" in my style with my dragons.
This illustration represents the dragon of war. For this reason I decided that the main color would be red, related to blood and violence.
In addition, it was a rough dragon wrapped in fire due to the harshness of war and the destruction it entails. On the helmet there is a snake referring to the form that evil takes, due to the evils committed in war.
The crossed swords crossing its mouth evoke the opposing sides in wars and, in between, the innocent people who are involved. In addition, the three swords allude to the tarot card "the three of swords" which is usually a card that generally represents pain.
