cheers to Dragon Wednesday @user_google_356177 just commented one of my older Dragon Wednesday pics and it reminded me I haven't done a dragon pic in ages Two word prompt. Do you want to guess the words? I'll post the prompt when both words are guessed correctly. ( @NielsCarlsen guessed it correctly! The prompt is : "dragonpunk, industrial" ) First word: starts with d has 10 letters made up word, I used to do them a lot 2nd wordd: starts with i has 10 letters real word, primarily an adjective, think of factories

About this image

A towering clockwork steampunk dragon built from weathered brass, rusted iron and exposed gears perches high on industrial factory walkways, glowing embers shining from its eyes and open jaws. Tattered leather wings spread wide behind the creature, overlooking a sprawling smoky Victorian industrial city crisscrossed with iron bridges, smokestacks and misty waterways under a hazy warm sunset sky. The atmosphere is moody, gritty, and rich with retro-futuristic fantasy aesthetic.

i was afraid to make it too difficult. Also some people who have been on BP awhile remember when I was doing the -punk series and inspired a whole bunch of people to experiment with -punk hybrid words. Newer people wouldn't have had that experience so "dragonpunk" would be a lot harder for them.
