I have always believed that is one of Elmore's worst D&D paintings
I assume you are joking, that dragon has all of the trappings of a silver since the 3e redesign.I think the dragon is meant to be gold. However, gold is shiny, so when it reflects bright white light, it looks silver.
Yes, it reminds me of the GoT dragons in that regardThat's a fairly chonky dragon. They did not skip neck day.
I've played around with AI art, this doesn't really seem that way at all to me.Parts of the background (namely the building piled upon each other, or the crowd of people at the bottom) look like they could have been generated… or maybe I’ve just become completely paranoid and suspicious

My preference is for them both to be a bit more grungy*, but I was raised on the fully metallic look so it does hit that nostalgia vibe for me.I like it. I like my metalic dragons to seem, well, metallic. Gives an epic, otherworldly feel.
No, for my chromatics, I like them highly realistic and grungy.
I like the idea that the color comes out in the underbelly or stripes or spots or whatever. Lots more artistic freedom there.My preference is for them both to be a bit more grungy*, but I was raised on the fully metallic look so it does hit that nostalgia vibe for me.
*By grungy I mean not fully monochromatic. Spines, claws, etc. more naturalistically rendered. The dragon's "color" being more a wash, undertone, or highlight than solid color.
