Good and Evil are often said to represent two forces of the Universe that struggle to maintain the balance. Yin Yang tells that in each of them there's a smallest part of the other. And that goes for an eternity.
I've combined the symbolism of colors of Yin Yang with the motive of Ouroboros, a snake eating its own tail: the symbol of eternity.
I'm glad I made this picture, it was an opportunity to learn a lot, especially in the department of textures: it's my first metal, fur and feathers, so I expect there to be quite some faults in them, but since I wanted to put it into the contest gallery, I decided to use no custom content for that, and instead experimented with help of various tutorials from DeviantArt.
I used and modified NASA photography for the space. Other than that, I used a free brush by Adam Woodhouse for the blood under the claws of the black dragon (in case it was important to mention it, I never know with the huge and scary legality rules ): ).
