filling out


Next, of course, comes the part where we flesh out our creation. Use your own best judgement on how large or small parts of the body are in relation to one another, but if you're going to make a more anthropomorphic dragon, looking at an anatomy book helps quite a bit. This draconis will be built much like a horse and cat. The base of the neck is above and slightly behind the "arms" shoulder set. The chest is deep and the legs have longer "feet" in relation to the upper legs. The head is like a horse's with a long nose and eyes set more to the side. Placement of wings differs by whom you ask but I believe that the "wings" rotary element would start above and slightly behind the "arms". Both of the base animals I'm using are four legged creatures so to allow the draconis to stand upright, a more Raptor look is needed with the tail and wings supplying the needed counter support for the stance.
