Looks like TR and Kirai've already nailed what I was going to say about this picture.
One question: is this guy flight capable? His wing arms look a tad thin to be supporting his weight as well as enduring the strain on the downbeats. Just make the arms a bit thicker next time, since they seriously are the only things that hold him up during flight.
Also, that third line underneath his lower jaw (I count upper jawline, lower jawline, and question mark line) looks a bit strange. I'd erase it if I were you, because otherwise it lends a strange perpective error to his head.
If I may be so bold as to suggest a random name, would something like Zarius work? (I just got that off the top of my head, hopefully I'm not ripping anyone's name off...)

I know what you mean on the legs, but I don't see much problem with them, probably it is because in my opinion it is not as perspective like the body. Just at the left leg, you made the line that a little going into his inner thigh.

EXACTLY! I'm a bit confused on how exactly i am supposed to draw that. Mabey just erase the line a bit?
oh yea i have done a bit of touch up as well as coloring / shading. It should be done by tomorrow..err later today in my time zone lol.
basicly just made the legs thicker a bit, added a tail and shortened the neck.

This is just my opinion on how you could make it a little more perspective. See the left side at his waistline? Try to draw the belly scales a little to the right, that will make the belly look like that it is turning with the body. Also on the right thigh at the belly scales try to draw it to the left a little and remove it from the thighs. The angle how the softer scales reach to his groin are is right I think, this all just need a bit of correction.
Hope that helps and I did not say anything stupid, it is up to you to try it out. I hope I had not screwed it up. I am eager to see the colored/shaded version.

thanks for the suggestion dude, that helps alot.
i found a leg reference sheet here and from that i was able to sketch and ink in some legs. I also added the rest of the wings, so its a full scale picture now, just have to finish inking it, then color, shade, reflect, then lastly background.
give me a day or 2 depending on how much free time i have today.

First: you are welcome.
Finaly: You are the artist, spend as many time with the coloring as many you want.

I reckon his head is too short for his neck, ah well.
The lineart is a whole ton smoother, eh?
