Good lord this took forever to finish (and it probably nearly killed my computer in the process), but the results turned out good despite a few flaws I'm just now seeing. Oh well.
Anyway, other people had naga-thingies and damnit, I wanted a naga-thingy too (and if ~AyamePasse can have a 'mer-dude' as she calls him, then I think I can have a 'snake-dude' to say the least). So, meet my newest creation, Zafira, who only lives to 'kill something and eat it'...or just to 'eat it' (not unlike sharks in real life).
I used several existing 'naga/lamia' references here in DA (including a naga drawn by =MincedNiku ), as well as read up on actual snakes at different websites. I also listened to lots and lots of Delirium and Deep Forest while I worked. He also has a 'giant pizza cutter weapon' like the characters in the 'Dark Age' cardgame have. Yay for Giant Pizza Cutter Weapons!
Anyway, enjoy.

Serpent people seem kinda scary, but very intriguing as well.
I like his weapon

Thank you very much. His weapon was inspired by some of the designs in Gerald Brom's "DarkWerks" art book.

Oh, Brom's mostly a dark fantasy artist. I used to do art for TSR. He has like...two art books and one illustrated novel out , and another illustrated novel coming out this summer I think.

Umm.... yeah, I know you were joking, I just don't get A) where it came from, B) what brought about the chicken butt part, C) what brought about the confessional thing, D) what brought about LaGucci specifically, and E) what you mean by "2.5" children.

You're welcome! ^^-
Hmmm... Does he like pizza? Or he likes more raw meat?
I bet it's pizza! XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He prefers his meat raw and living. He likes his food to wiggle and squirm on the way down.

Heehee. I know. Looks can be deceiving, ja?

Oohh yeah, I like this one alot. The detail on the tail is my favorite also. Lovely wings that only accent the work. And the pizza cutter is a nice touch

The tail details were done with a PS brush from *redheadstock and took forever to get right.
