A close up portrait of a mythical creature that embodies the essence of wonder, exuding a mystical aura that is heavily exaggerated beyond human form, with very detailed close up dark amber orange reptilian humanoid eyes. Its presence is ethereal, existing only in the imagination, yet feels strikingly familiar to the human form, evoking a sense of unsettling mesmerizing beauty. Drawing inspiration from Julie Bell's iconic art style, the creature's intricate scales shimmer with a metallic sheen, and its elongated features, with delicate patterns reminiscent of ancient myths, create an enigma that captivates the observer, inviting them into a world of fantastical allure.
