          Very cute design so far. I really enjoy that you're taking the dragon part a bit more literally. 🙂

            @chrisaakins This is so appealing!! Wow! Like @Lovsey suggested, gave me a similar idea that you could put the hoard inside a bird's nest in the leaves, because this creature is the perfect size to do something like that. What a cool piece!

              @chrisaakins It's looking so good! I love this idea. It's cute that they are hoarding little useless things. Reminds me of a magpie!

                I think I’m done. I am going to let it marinate a little. Any final thoughts?

                  @Lovsey thank you for your critique. I think you were right. I added more trinkets and more leaves. I think it looks more grounded in its environment now.

                    Oops! he was missing a leg. I added more detail on his wings. I brightened it up a little and added a frame. 5174F741-CC4D-4CD8-A967-EC0D704129BF.jpeg

                      @chrisaakins Glad to help! Your changes work nicely to reveal your character’s obsession while giving us more fun objects to identify 😄
