First Ever Sprite

Yeah, this is my first ever sprite signature:

V1. http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/o...dragon/1-3.png

V2. http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/o...bodragon/2.png

CnC please.

V1 is better imo cause you can see the sprite at least a little bit, and its not so monotone
the text needs work
i really have to squint to find a focal in there, at first it just looked like a blob effect thing, i didn't see the sprite, so work on clearing that up, maybe take the sprite and put it on top of everything else and lower the opacity a little bit? might get rid of some of the blending work, but if i cant see the sprite whats the use for awesome blending?
you DO have goo blending in there, and i see depth, just without a focal its difficult
gj for a first sprite :D

Thanks! Photoshop scaled down the actual size and messed me up. That's why you can't see the sprite as well.

GREAT work for a first.
Just make sure that the render is more visible.
Effects are good as well, and the colours are cool.
Nice work, really good for a first. :D

i personally like v2 but it needs more stuff its too centre focal

Thanks for the comments! I might create a V3 later with better text.
