Mouse-drawn in photoshop.

This is Zephyre (pronounced zef-fire) one of my older characters. He's some sort of dragon-like raptor creature (which I haven't named yet) that is used as a mount-type pet in my imaginary world of Addyon. Specifically, he's Kiro's mount in Addyon.
And, yes, grass is purple in Addyon.

Those are supposed to be feathers on his head and arms, but I gave up on trying to draw them better than that.
Also, I really don't like how his shadow came out at all. And the shading probably needed more work.
Nor do I really like the background, as I gave up trying to draw pretty clouds to put in the sky.


Species Info:
This type of creature is big enough to carry a human-sized creature on its back, and runs very fast. They are agile, loyal, and extremely vicious.
They are a particularly useful mount because they can tear apart enemies and crack a skull with the club on the end of their tails.
