Draw bogsneaks like this
[img id] Digital artwork of a Bogsneak dragon, which looks like a monitor lizard standing upright. It is drawn with thin black lineart. A bogsneak has a long neck, a long tail, relatively stubby lizard limbs, and a short wingspan. Twin frills line its neck. This dragon is mostly tan along the body, with reddish brown wings and mineralized dark brown splotches on all the wing and fin membranes. It sports exotic turquoise marks, including a 'mask' around the eyes and contour lines down its belly and across its limbs. Its tail is vibrantly stripy with deep brown and turquoise stripes.
If someone hates this dragon's anatomy or tells me I've "ruined" my own artwork, I will eat them [/id]

And this is probably my favorite one so far still, idk why I just really love how it came out. So it gets its own post as well!
Daily Dragon #9 - Scavenger Dragon
These bipedal dragons are a little cowardly and avoid fighting. So they've developed a taste for rotten flesh. However, they still wear armor in case a fight comes to them, or they have to scare off vultures and other animals for their food.
watched a ton of videos about monitor lizards when I made this (i really like them for some reason lol) and I actually didn't know they're scavenger animals (at least in Australia it seems lol) which is cool! Always been a fan of vultures so it's neat there's reptiles that do that too
