Almost done with UVs and grouping!This baby is ready to go out for rigging and texturing, and I am relieved that I didn't mess up anything big - so far!

Looks amazing so far. I have the PC+ Dragon Skeleton, but yours is so much more detailed. He looks so cool.

Gee, i have been distracted and i missed this update.
I am sorry.
Is looking very very good, the skull in particular attracts my attention hence is absolutely looking original in its shape.
Not an ordinary dragon for sure, which i like very much

Haha, no worries
I am a bit stuck with this monster - rigging is next *cringes*
But I will get there. Eventually
And you made me really happy by saying that this skeleton looks original

Eek...the rigging.
I am no expert but that amount of joints to move accordingly with the others looks a titanic task that would challenge even the most patient person on earth.
But i am sure you'll tame this beast.
Keep smiling and keep going

It's not as bad as it sounds, I think. Just the sheer amont of BONES is intimidating.
Oh well, time to think about this when I get there. I have another project right now which keeps me busy and wants to be finished first.

Looks great, can't wait to set it Iray-textured and fully rendered... those of us who are dragon-addicted would of course pick it up immediately from the DAZ store.

Thank you
I hope to have a bit more to show in a bit. I am still not done modeling a few details. This project will be by far my largest I am afraid.

Awesome! I love this. Which is odd for me, because I'm not a skeleton-loving kind of person. But this guy is beautiful.
Hmm... you've spent a long time working on dragon bones, you would know. Do male and female dragons have different bone structure? Just idle curiosity...

Haha, thank you!
There would probably be some differences.
With this species, the females are bigger and stronger. I took inspiration from most bird of prey species.
So I figure the skeletons of the females would be bigger and a bit more sturdy.
No idea, really, I just focused in modeling this monster so far

Thanks! I was looking at this and automatically checked the pelvis to see if it was a boy or a girl. And then I realized dragons don't usually walk upright, and therefore wouldn't need a different shaped pelvis to support babies.

I agree!
I am sure there are a great deal of inaccuracies in this skeleton.
It was great fun to model it, but now I am dreading the rigging
