As my understanding of mundane reptiles grows, I feel like I have to start making more conscious decisions about the look and feel of my dragons, because ordinary reptiles don’t have very mobile faces, if nothing else. “Cold reptilian stares” are a thing for a reason.
I’m not sure where this train of thought will end, but it’s well after midnight and I worked for 10 hours today.
The scales kind of became this strange hodgepodge as I tried to fill space, and I’m not really thrilled with that, which is part of why I left the lower jaw unadorned. Also, making the scales looks like they covered a rounded surface without making them jut off didn’t quite work the way I had hoped. Ah, well.
