Unfortunately, I do not have a good ref, so I'm pulling up my last commission notes.

I'll note that some of the details are a little hidden, I tend to leave a lot up to the reader's imagination. I kinda pictured him similar in body profile to a nightfury (that round, chubby Chris Sanders look), but without scales with a glossy look instead of matted.

The ebony creature is a rare sort for dragon kind. Instead of the classic sleekness, Loiosh is a pleasingly chubby crossbreed of eel and dragon. His muzzle is wide and expressive with large blue eyes. Arranged around his head are a series of tendril-like frills joined with fleshy webbing. They protect his short and thickly muscled neck.
Massive wings nestle tightly upon his back. Their flesh is the same creamy hide that covers him and is silky to the touch. They are held in form by a multiple of finger-like spars that run from his specialized wing hand. Each digit is graced with numerous joints to give him an impressive flexibility. No wing thumbs.
His tail is thicker than that of most dragons; instead of being a distinct limb, it looks as if his body continues past his hips. The muscular appendage steadily slims till the end with two sets of lateral fins breaking the smooth line. He is a sleek flyer underneath with only his genital and anal slit breaking the supple black skin. The first set of fins is near the base of his tail and lies along his tail's sides when folded. The second set of fins cling to the end of his tail. They fan backwards from either side to stabilize his flight. Along both sides of his graceful form, numerous yellow dots brighten his dark hide to warn others to his species's natural electrical gift.

Some other details, his legs are platigrade, toes and fingers are blunt, but dexterous.

As always, you know my policy on payments. If you send a quote, please make sure to leave room for a tip :)

Oh, Fex,

You mentioned you like monsters. Here's another character I have. Sorry for the long description, he's never been drawn. I wonder if you'd be interested in a second commission.

Desc:

Crouching silently like an apparition is the aptly-named slink. Normally a being of pure nightmare-black, this example is of the rare skeletal type. This name is given for the species' affection of wearing decorative bones over the oily iridescence of their eel-like skin. The quadruped slink species strides gracefully, similar to large felines whose muscles ripple in a rolling motion as they move. Though they superficially resemble felines, the wide curved body and longer legs hint to a more arboreal species like the fossa. Stocky, muscled, and graceful, the slink steps with the silent movements of a large ambush predator.

A smattering of vertebral bones run as a false spine along the creature's back. At the base of curved haunches, the slink sports paired rib bones of smaller mammals that are worn like decorative rings over a thick reptilian tail. How they cling to the skeletal slink is a mystery unless one makes the perilous approach to observe. The oily sheen is not from the slink's flesh, but a symbiote living upon and within the slink's satiny skin. From the creature's pores the symbiote's liquid grips upon the bones. The strands are so fine that they resemble living smoke at the bottom of each skeletal piece.

The species' sex is always a difficult matter to determine. Under the broad tail and between toned haunches is a clasped slit. No external characteristics hint to gender as the vent is without lips or clit and held closed by firm internal muscles. If asked, the slink introduces as male; however, slinks are functional hermaphrodites, with the sexes of both genders tucked within the cloacal vent. Given the introduction as male, he is properly a male hermaphrodite, or maleherm.

The bleached white of a large reptile skull crowns the bone slink's head. Silver slanted eyes gaze from within the large orbit of the decorative skull. They shimmer with the reflective tinge common to evolved night predators. One would not be mocked for assuming the creature has two sets of ears as above the slink's head sits two ear-like organs. Long and slender true ears, reminiscent of elves, are cupped from behind by larger organs that resemble the leaf shaped ear of a possum. These secondary organs are frosted with white on their pointed tips and sport a mass of barely-visible iridescent cilia ringing the edges. Both sets are independently mobile and expressive, with the true ears flicking in response to sound and the larger leaf shapes sensitive to the subtle influence of air pressure and wind. Visible within the skull's nasal cavity are slit nostrils which flex with the slink's breathing. Only the upper half of the skull is worn. Ebony lips hide a wide rose-colored tongue which splits into cobalt-blue tips.

He's oddly similar in overall design to your guy: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/17489150/ except wider (more muscled, chubby), and his hindlegs are not digigrade, but platigrade like his forelegs. I always pictured him kinda panther like in body shape: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/12294909/

also, as for the second one, yes I'm totally up for it!!! would you want another black and white one?

Yes please. It matches the character's design perfectly.

He doesn't perceive colors (he visualizes light polarizat.. anyways too much detail).

Yes please. Email me the total and I'll pay tomorrow morning :)

Aaah this sounds like a challenge but a good one! I'll do my best :)

That suit you did is super adorable :D

thank youuu~~~ :33
