Description
A commission for Morghus of his wyvern self trying to get at those hard to reach places on his wings. Maintaining proper wing condition and all, you know. ^^This was quite a fun image to create, and using flying fox references really helped a lot to convey a proper texture in the wing membranes, as well as working with a better knowledge of the range of motion that could be possible. I think I am quite happy with how the scales turned out, and the lighting was a good challenge that I'm sure I didn't fully utilize. One at at a time, though, right?
Hope you enjoy the image, and thank you so much for the opportunity to work with your dragon again, Morghus! You are amazing. <3

^^ I'm very happy that you see it that way! I love working with more natural situations for fantasy creatures - it very much makes them feel more plausible. Thanks for your comment! : )

Yes! And that's the point we need to achieve with fantasy creatures this days as it is possible.
Welcome!
