Over all this is a great start! But from what I've learned in my studies of winged hexapod vertebrates such as griffins and dragons using a single scapula to support both the wings and front limbs would not allow for the right muscle attachments for both sets of limbs to function properly, and your rib cage needs a keeled sternum to supply enough surface and strength to support the fantastically huge flight muscles flying creatures need to get off the ground.


This dragon here is a decent example of what I'm talking about: fav.me/d33h669


Oh, I found another even better reference here: fav.me/d32q5jz

And another good one here: fav.me/d3eyogo


See what I mean?

hey thank you! I definitely thought there's no way the wings would attach like that (after I drew it of course) and I TOTALLY shou;d have given it the bird chest bones instead of a lion. Argh!! Thanks so much for pointing it out because I had a great time drawing it and will probably do it again someday (only a little better)
