Venus is very energising... not just because she is a fiery dragon, either. I even find her fun and a little funny. Making her a female, matching her name and symbol, while pairing up wi the manly Mars, is also clever... especially in making both fiery. The cream-coloured head, while fitting the colour of the actual planet, trips me, though.

Other than the legs, I feel great about pixelling her. Getting the shading on the wing and tail wi was tricky, bu the sprite looks pretty good. I like how the palette looks brighter. However, I had a bit of difficulty getting the pattern of the ventral scales not clash wi the shading... possibly affecting the back of her crest. Another difficulty is getting her tail... o rather, her tail flame, put correctly. I was repeatedly trying to compete between the tail and the wing. I managed to get everything 'happy' here, though.

If I were to fix this, I might alter the legs and tail. I might also alter the colours of her crest and simplify the shading. I might also make the tail end and wings look more fiery.
