Description
It´s finally done!|´D
After nearly two years I finally finished Nids reference sheet. This took me way longer than I ever had anticipated. Mainly because I have a great dislike for drawing references and put this on hiatus for a lot of commissions, contests and other personal art. But since he is one of my main go-to characters whenever I want to commission a fellow artist, the urge to complete his reference grew big enough over time for me to tackle it again.
I´m quite happy how it turned out, even though the sketch and parts of the lineart are quite old and therefore have some weird angles or minor anatomy mistakes. I´d have had to redraw it completely to correct them all, and that might have taken me another two years, so they´ll stay. In the end you can see all that is important about my giant zombiedragon, and that´s enough for me.:3
The drawing at the bottom is a down-scaled version of this one: finiens.deviantart.com/art/the… . You can also find some Info about Nid in the description, but in case you are too lazy to follow the link (shame on you!XD) I´ll copy it here:

Nidhogg has:
- symmetrical markings
- symmetrical rings at the horns, but only one earring on the left side of his head
- insides of the wings reflect the night sky
- white scales/hornplates go all along his back

Because of his impressive size (and because I want to be able to draw him with more than space-backgrounds and interacting with other characters) he has the ability to create a kind of astral projection of himself. It is around 8 m high and 20 m in length and lacks the planet between his horns. In this form he can´t touch anything living, meaning he is able to stand on rocks, swim and fly, but at the same time pass through people or trees. While in this state, his original body falls in a trance-like state. He can´t be killed by destroying his projection, but he might get a massive headache out of it.XD
