A highly detailed, realistic sculpture of a smaug. The Smaug's scales are a rich, fiery blend of deep reds, burnt oranges, and earthy browns, with subtle gradients and variations suggesting natural aging or heat exposure. The undersides of its wings and belly feature slightly lighter, more muted orange tones. Its scales have a fine, slightly rough texture, showing individual scales with subtle hints of iridescence or sheen, not overly glossy. The dragon is slender and agile, indicative of a younger creature but with powerful limbs. Its neck is elegantly curved, head slightly uplifted, looking towards the right side of the frame with a keen, intelligent gaze. The wings are expansive and prominent, unfurled but not fully extended for flight. The wing membranes are thin and translucent-looking, revealing intricate vein-like structures beneath the surface, matching the red-orange color palette. Its wing claws are sharp and distinct. The dragon's strong claws grip a dark, craggy rock formation that appears volcanic or like burnt wood, with a very rough, porous, and charcoal-like texture. The rock is predominantly dark gray to black, with subtle tonal variations highlighting its texture and very slight hints of dark reddish-brown or rust in the crevices. The rock is irregular and organic, rising vertically to support the dragon, with sharp edges and deep indentations creating interesting shadows. The dragon's tail gracefully wraps around the base of the rock, its tip disappearing slightly behind it, maintaining body color and texture. The entire sculpture is mounted on a clean, circular, dark wooden or black matte base that is simple and unobtrusive. Studio lighting is dramatic and focused, with a main key light from slightly above and to the front, casting soft but well-defined shadows that accentuate three-dimensionality. Subtle rim lighting from the back or side separates the dragon and rock from the background. Shadows are natural and deep
