So
nevermint was holding a contest for a new dragon character of his. When I saw the picture: http://www.furaffinity.net/full/10215480/ I couldn't resist!
I wanted to create a character design that was instantly recognizable. My main inspiration was the Asiatic dragon; no wings, just a sleek body. I decided to try something unique with his tail and make it a double tail with the traditional Asian dragon fringe in the center. His tail is akin to a rudder when in flight. He has more fringe down his lower arms and lower back. His horns and claws are made of the same material and he has dew claws on his lower limbs. His markings are a coupling of overlapping geometric and organic shapes that compliment his existing pattern.
Hope nevermint likes.
*Edit* Polished up my entry a little more. Now that I'm not drunk with sleep deprivation, I saw that the deign did not represent enough of the character's "fluff". Went back and puffed up his coat a bit and put black tips on his double tail.
