I am a freelance digital artist with a passion for birds, dinosaurs & dragons. This profile is where you will find my w.i.ps & completed works ✏️✨️

A detailed character reference sheet depicting “LiskNa,” a sleek european dragon-like creature with an elongated serpentine body, narrow muzzle, and immense wings. The overall palette is muted charcoal, ash grey, and deep ocean blue with luminous cyan markings flowing across the wing membranes like branching lightning or bioluminescent currents. The primary side-profile illustration shows LiskNa in a low quadrupedal stance with long forelimbs and digitigrade hind legs. Their tail is extremely elongated and whip-like, ending in a pine-cone spade that resembles blue labradorite. The neck is graceful and swan-like with a subtle horn or crest extending from the head. The wings dominate the composition, stretching dramatically upward and outward with scalloped trailing edges. The membranes are patterned with flowing electric-blue vein-like lines that fade toward pale cyan near the leading edges, evoking storm clouds, deep-sea organisms, or electrical discharges. Smaller dorsal and ventral wing diagrams are included to showcase the full spread and pattern symmetry. Additional anatomical studies display the dexterous forehands with elongated fingers adapted for manipulation, alongside notes and color swatches explaining pigmentation and luminescent features.
Reference sheet of Mieph’tith, a desert-dwelling Therophæves with enormous barred wings (inspired directly by Kiro Bustards—they are feathered but I didn't want to refine them further), slender legs, grasping claws, and a long whip-like tail. Their plumage is pale sand and cream with dark brown and black markings inspired by raptorial birds. A veil of coarse feathering trails from the haunches like elongated tail feathers. The sheet includes dorsal and ventral wing views, eye color references, and anatomical notes describing thermal-regulating plumage, facultative zygodactyl feet, defensive flame-wreathing behavior, and adaptations for navigating canyon systems and seasonal floodplains. Mieph’tith is described as a basin navigator and seasonal guardian inhabiting arid desert basins beneath mountain foothills, centered around a towering sandstone spire used as a sanctuary and observation point.

Loose digital painting [fanart] of a teal striped Trex named "Fang" from the TV series (and mature cartoon) named "Primal." They are given such title for the prominent 'fang' growing on the right side of their bottom jaw.

A digital painting of a white and lavender shaded Aravani with beautiful blue crystalline shapes, soft feathers and fur. Backed by a glacial field and full moon.
Rough digital painting of a bipedal humanoid with bear like features and powerful tusks. Their form bears mammoth hide leathers, furs and molars for chain mail, and blue cape strewn about their shoulders. They are framed by a forest with a misty background. A mighty bow and arrow are displayed alongside the weilder --crafted from Drakhoul (an eldrich/corrupted dragos).
