Description
~~~So after taking a poll of preferred ref sheet layouts, horizontal-oriented won out by a tsunami. And I have to say I more than agree.
Updated to a more streamlined form. I liked the layout...but the more I looked at it the more...eh, square, and...unorganized? Um...dang, what's the word I'm looking for...callow? Scattered? Anyway, I updated it.
Will be using the horizontal-oriented refs until further notice. I like the look /a lot/ better and makes the characters and wings themselves look longer and wider... And I like adding in all the little drawings I did, hehe.
Lots of spaces just because I did a basic transfer of all the previous elements on the long canvas. Left side is for general information, right side is more for effects/add-ons.
Let me know if any of the text is confusing or the general outline is awkward. I don't do ref sheets that often, as you're quite aware. The full-size file is available for download anyway, so if it's still difficult to read /after/ that, then something's up.
Also, now that I have an official ref sheet up for him, feel free to draw Skeezit and such!
Just definitely let me know when/if you actually do, because I'd love to see it. ^^Also, also, I drew that silhouette! It's actually just a blacked-in version of a full-body shot of my char I did. (Actually did the dude for Muzafr's ref sheet, and transferred the silhouette here as well.) I'll probably post the not-blacked-in version later.
Enjoy!

I've seen many of your dragons and characters, and I'm sure you have this posted somewhere, but what is the main plot behind them? Where is their setting exactly? I'm curious to know, as it seems intruiging to me the amount of detail and history you put into your characters.

This guy and some of the other dudes in reference to him, (Kalamullah, Huznullah, Yudah...) are part of their own story and aren't related to Muzafr, Idracil and Juban... This guy in particular is actually sent in a futuristic, sci-fi setting, (I have a secret love of sci-fi, hehe,) with heavily religious undertones. Skeezit here is the main character, and basically finds himself in between ' progression,' (his home city,) and 'tradition,' the other dragons he meets. My other chars are from more historical settings, very Medieval. However, I don't have any of the stories actually posted online. I might in the future...but for now their backstories just come in the artist comments when I post their pics, hehe.
But thanks a lot for asking! ^^ Makes me want to write right now!

Your very welcome, glad I could help. I really think your setting really helps me imagine your story very well. Is their world really Earth with crusade like settings, or another world entirery?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nope, all my stories take place on earth. ^^. As a student of political science and history, I'm a nerd when it comes to making predictions of the state of a certain country, technology, the evolution of religion, etc in the next...100 years, 500 years, it's a lot of fun for me personally. XD

Yeah, I always like history because its like a story with different dynamic characters and evolving plots. I think its even cooler that your story takes place on Earth, like Sci-Fi historical fiction

Wow, that's just awesome! I love the detail!

Love the newish design! Like how you mixed the wings, and made it all fish-like without taking the dragon away!

So this is what you have been working on, you little bugger! My second guess was that Skeezit would have been one of the first to get a reference. My first was Muzafr, but I guess since you're working on that one too, I'm sort of right!
The horizontal alignment looks wonderful; you certainly pulled it off well. ^^ I love how you have the background colors different shades of Skeezit's main colors. Looks awesome!
But I digress.
Also.. can draw Skeezit, eh? I might have to take a shot at that. Never tried glowy stuff before. (I'm missing out, aren't I?)

Hehehehehe, nope! This isn't it! This was actually a side project that I just decided to do and whipped up quick this afternoon. 
Yeah, I'm a lot happier with this format. I was disliking the square format more and more and I finally couldn't stand it, for more reasons than I just wasn't fond of the format. But yeah. ^^
Oh my gosh, that would be so awesome!

Gosh darn it! I could of sworn..!! Hmmmmm.... now what could it be?
Square's a bit too thin and a bit too short for my likings.. it bothers me as well! I generally just go with whatever size of canvas I have and make it work.
I must! I shall! Glowiness is awesome turned into a liquid.
And here! It's only a traditional sketch, but I might turn it digital sometime! [link]

I have no idea!
Square just strikes me at too...plain anymore. And just recently I became really disgusted with it - bad association, if you will. Something like that. And also, there's a lot more...scrolling around with a square sheet, whereas with a long sheet, it's just like zip! right across, hehe. And it appears more readable, too, for the same reason.
Go for it! DA needs more glowy pics to add to its shiny quota!

...that icon wasn't what I expected.
Yep! Very much more linear.
Glad you do!

Okay, this might actually be the best ref I've ever seen. This is so fantastic. And the character is bloody amazing, I wish I was half as creative as you! You're brilliant!

Aw, thanks so much! Omg, wait until I unveil Muzafr's final sheet! It's more epic than this.

It's no problem at all! I love all of your works
I really look forward to seeing that!!!

First reference sheet I've ever seen to be honest. Really good, liking the details on the wings, keep it up!

Whoop Skeezit finally has a ref sheet!!!

i absolutely love this guy's design!
i like how you even put the different eyes on here too
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
As a side note; I think the size is fine. The text is a bit difficult to read on DA, but you have the option to download the image, so it's not like there's no way to read it

Is it bad to say that Skeezit looks absolutely adorable in that top-right picture of him?
'cause he does.
I love how he looks when using his Light Power, particularly the glow. It makes him look quite fierce!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He does.
Thanks! Yeah, he actually looks a bit scary when he uses his power! But then his cuteness kind of ends it, wahahahahaha.
