Description
Made this image specially to be my new icon/avatar for a good while.Since I have Photoshop CS6 now, I completely forgot to bring along my Watermark brush T_T So now I will make a new one of that as well... So I just threw in text for now.
This is very simple and a bit messy, I wanted lots of debris. Saira has black retractable teeth

I really like the design of this character's head, it's very cool. Nice use of texture in the background and the added flecks in the foreground, that gives it some nice visual diversity. It's unfortunate that you can't see it as easily in the icon size of the piece, but since that's the case, I'm glad you uploaded this version as well.

Oh thank you so much! I do have a little more of her design in my gallery if you're interested. But thank you c: I figured, I might as well show it off in a larger scale anyway :b

You're most welcome, and I did see a little bit more of her in your gallery, on that one sketch dump you did. She has a very interesting silhouette, and I like the flow of her markings/tattoos, as they go along her shoulders and ribcage. Is there a specific reason for those? I noticed that the other fellow in that sketch page is the same species, but has different different designs, and was curious.

Ooh you're getting me so excited about my OCs in a way that I need to hurry up with posting some references and what not.. Thank you so much!
I would like to call them markings, but I won't mind if people consider them as tattoos. Just markings that flow with her body, no real purpose or reason.. though she does have some bioluminescence that thinly runs through her markings. I have a small purpose for those but nothing as of yet. Maybe not even a purpose, I actually don't know yet xD something to consider.
The other beast you saw is Draken, who in a sense isn't exactly the same species as Saira, but the species are very close in a way. Back then when I created them, I gave them a class with a simple name: Savage. They are both different species, but both species are considered "savage" thus giving the species a somewhat similar appearance. Draken's species lacks eyes, and Saira's species generally have more tendrils and a bit of a different body type...
Oh goodness sorry for rambling on so much, and I do hope I made some sense!! Again thank you for your kindness

Well I'm glad to have made you feel excited! Being excited about OC projects and the like is quite motivating. And the bio-luminescence idea would be pretty cool, though to some degree it having a purpose would only help strengthen the character, and perhaps make him/her unique from other "Savage." Would there be various types of Savage then, beyond the two characters you have in that sketch page? Or would you maybe limit it to only a few types, and try and introduce more variety that way? Hopefully the questions aren't pestering, I'm just curious, haha. And no worries, you made plenty of sense. You're welcome, again, and it's no trouble. Keep up the good work.

It really is C: thanks!
You know, that is really something to think about. Yes, definitely something to make her species somewhat more unique.
And please, I don't mind the questions at all! C: Its all something very good to consider. Plus it gets the creative juices flowing!
For right now, I only have a handful of different "Savage" species. (And I only have two characters that are two different species from each other: Saira and Draken) Most of them have one thing in common, and that's the lack of eyes, with possible tendrils. Some species like Saira's is an acceptation. Not all savage species lack eyes, but most due and I do have a reason for that. Though I should probably organise the species a little more by making another sub order for species like Saira. Since they contain eye's and bio-luminescence. On the sketch page, you only see Draken and Saira. (and Ashiaz and Elzatros, though they aren't really related to them in any way)
Ohhh thank you though so much!
