      The rocks are quite good- it lacks texture, which is the only real problem. I've done a little caving in my time, and the formations are similar to that, but cave formations are very unique. To learn how to draw a cave formation and normal rock is two different storys. My thoughts is to surf the net and copy from a photo- cave fock sediments drop lime down from the roof to the floor hardening into stakes of rocks over hunderds of years. Usually there would be rocks 'dropping' from the top to the bottom, sometimes connecting in between. The texture would be smooth in this case. If this is a 'man' made cave, the edges would jag off in random angles.

      My last point is the light- There's a pretty strong light source there- the trolls would light up more, and silhoette the guy at the front with his bck to us. The thing with light is the ambience. Ohhh- and they'd all cast coolies shadows away from the light!! Moooooody :3 Hope that helps

          Trolls, only cause unless they aren't traditional dragon sized, they're a little small- unless they are baby dragons. It seems more of a troll thing to do- Dragons are reguarded as noble creatures in any myth- some going astray. Most of the time those are the european dragons- the asian ones tend to be on level with GODS seemingly ^^;
