This is just the character anatomy pane of The Great Big Auric Refsheet found here http://www.furaffinity.net/full/15514436/ It is a mix of traditional linework and digital drawings.

I know the bone drawings and individual bone count isn't going to be particularly helpful to 99.476% of artists, but we had the drawings from an anatomy/Halloween drawing so they got included. The detail view of how his tail feathers attach to the tail bones (lower left) can be helpful when drawing his tail, particularly when it is in different positions.

The sketch of how the loincloth is worn is for the benefit of artists who actually worry about how clothing works.
