Cherry bloom dragon - WIP

ok ok ....you have seen this dragon at lest three times now but look! background! i know I'm totally rubbish at background and it's one of the things I'm trying to improve on in my 'old and new' project so let me knew what you think and how i can improve it.

it's still an WIP as i want to refine it a lot and put it a ton more detail, make each flower on the branch stand out and give more depth and detail to the background but I'm pretty happy with this so far.
