Alright so here is the case..We finally got something interesting in our graphical class (No idea what its called in English xD) and i really wanna nail this! So I am asking for some help from you guys, and all help is welcome :3
So the task is to make a comic cover for a super hero that you have created yourself. It can be human but also animal related as long as he/she lives with other humans.
Of course i created a reptile humanoid thing with some super powers (wrote a back story in Norwegian.. sorry D
and here she is! Reptile! 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But the thing here is that i need help with her femininity. I personally think i nailed her body pretty good and her armor. But her face is.. kinda of.. Β (Honestly.. it looks a like some sort of a orge lizard.. xD)
So I am wondering if you guys have any good tips for me? How i can change her face to make it even more feminine and more like a lizard? And of course if you have some other ideas, please share them :3
Thanks for your time! And I can't wait to read your feedback if ya have any!! ^3^

Since art is kinda clichΓ© a lot of the times, females "shapes" are often round, "soft" contures and has less detailed features than males (like less wrinkles when you make an angry face, for example). However, I think that she's too human to just pop a dragon's head on, make it more human, but with some elements of a dragon head. For example human shaped head with scales comming up her neck, her nose might be pushed in like Voldemort (xD) etc. Basically try to find a middle ground between dragon and human.

Hmm.. that is true.. Probably something i should keep in mind while editing her!
Well.. What about shrinking her snout to a small cute little snout and make her face more like a human? just keep some reptile things like the sharp eyes and stuff like that? You see, i really want her to be a reptile, so i prefer not doing to much about that x3 But i have to say! You really made me laugh when i imagined her with a voldemort nose! Holy ghast that's a spooky picture xD

It's good to just try different things, but I personally think a snout would look a little off. Basically in my head a snout requires the spine to be attatched to the back of the skull in order for it to not look "broken", as opposed to the human spine which is attatched underneath the skull. You could try bending the torso (just a quick google search something like this www.ixaarii.com/wp-content/upz⦠) or perhaps something like this fc01.deviantart.net/fs71/f/201⦠. Just experiment!

I gave it some tried and found a good way to draw the snout! I draw it a lot smaller and reshaped the head to make it fit! I used the stereotypical cartoonish way to do it, so you'll see when I am done :3
But thanks a bunch for the feedback! I'll defiantly read through this next time i'll draw her ;D

The first that pops in my head is telling to look at some picture of Cynder from 'The legend of Spyro' in her adult form. I gave plenty of her in picture on my computer, I will try to propose you some that could help you to make her head on Skype ;3! For the rest I find it great, the beast palate is super, her arms are good, you had placed the thumbs well... The idea of a skirt is good too, to underline her feminine.
Otherwise, if you want an idea of mine for a cover, I can tell you this: Having a look of her entire body, standing on the top of a building, 3/4 backside, turning her head to the viewer so it his in a profile view, her tail curling up and her arms holding her waist. The idea of standing on building with the light moon is used a lot in comics, and I think it gives always a badass effect -w-. I hope I was clear with my words x3!

i have the pictures on my dropbox now, so i will use them when i start working on her while on school! :3
Well, I will probably work on the one i already have, but i may try your idea if i get the time! x3

Have you tried looking up dragon facial expressions (but female wise)

Yeah kind of, but i am having a hard time seeing how they make them so feminine, that's why i asked if there is something to keep in mind :3

It may be the width of the mouth and the eyes that need to be fixed?
