Well this took longer than I would have liked and it's not quite what I had in mind but I wanted to get it done in the end. This is Raleigh, a Diety for The Land of Mystera which is a group that myself and my friend are working on together.

Despite his looks, Raleigh is classified as a Bird (AKA An Aves). Being a Diety I wanted to make him as fancy and flashy as possible to... well 1) Go with his "I'm better than you attitude" and 2) Because I wanted something that was a 'bird' but not a bird. Basically, I took several different animals in a manner of speaking and combined them together as one.

Raleigh has the long body of a Serpent/Eastern Dragon, some cat like features in his face and the way his legs are structured, with the Beak and Feathers of a bird. He has 6 Wings which would classify him as a 'Seraph' of his species which is rare for them, General Felives (As they are called, Full name being Felives Eridani) Only have one or two sets of wings. More is considered to be God-Like (Again, playing on the fact that he's a diety)

His coloration is solid black, with a Deep purple skeleton marking that frames his body. He also has deep crimson Egyptian markings (Which I got lazy and didn't draw here) which give him a very interesting appearance. Anyway, enough on that... XD This is one picture down... only, 2 more to go for a Completed Ref sheet haha xD Enjoy
