Description
A study of DRACOICE 's works.
I've been wanting to make a nidoking themed dragon for quite a while now. xD I guess I'm happyish with it but there's still a lot I need to improve on. xD I need to work on leg balance, arm position and perspective, tails (at least in line-art ugh xnx) and everything else pretty much.
Also, there's a lot of people I need to thank for helping me and being part of the community. :3 I will do it without mentions but use their dA names; Dracoice has given me lots of useful help, Peffy has been giving me great advice, along Gneiss-Chert and also her encouragement. Groudan383 and Raimbowtiti have been encouraging, and Natsuakai has been inspiring, thank you all!
Feel free to leave constructive comments, I like them. c:

He reminds me of ex-veemon....
You know I worry that i can't look at a clothe less character without wondering what they're packing anymore -_-

I really like Exveemon, it was not intentional but it is good to know! 
Don't worry!

The Veemon digivelovtion series was always my one of my favorites.
And don't worry the wonder of what he's packing is only my first thought. The rest comes after.

Awesome work!! You are improving greatly and so quick! Loving the muscle definition on his right leg!

Thank you very much, I hope so! I shall take that to note while choosing what to study, thanks once again!

*Serious mode* Wow, that looks awesome! Great work!
*Normal mode* *Grabs table* Put some trousers on, damnit!! XD jk, it's amazing!

Thank you very much! :3
Pfft wow! xD Your normal mode is pretty hilarious. 
Would trousers even be wearable with the tail though? xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
XD
With the trouser problem, there's like a type of trouser with a hole where the tail is, and a button on the top, so you can un-button it, and just slip the on XD. then button it back up so they won't fall down XD

Wow, It's so great, so did a really good job on it. ^^
The legs, and arms looks so great, and the perspective is pretty nice.
The only things that bother me are the size of the chest, I found it too long, and the base of the tail, she looks bigger than the body, and she don't look naturally attached with the body, I mean, the body seems to go on the left side horizontally, and the tail start vertically, it looks like there's a separation between them, and maybe the under side of the tail who looks "weird" (for me) when it's end.
Except this, the rest is the rest is well done.
And the marks you had are sweet ^^ . ( it's to kill me right?)
But just one question: Where are the glasses ? he don't look the same without them.

Thank you very much! 
Hmm I will take that into consideration. Perhaps I just prefer it that way even if it's not anatomically perfect. xD
Yes I don't think I got the perspective right on the tail at all. It was a bit better with the sketch but I still need to work on it a lot. Thanks for mentioning it.
No, they are not for that. xD Each of them have a meaning behind them but I won't explain anything.
You can think of this as a different character I guess. xD The other one drawn by Nat is more of a representation of myself and my character.

Ok thank you. ^^
If you like this way, maybe you can try to make it larger, it could counterbalance the height ( I think ) . ^^
So your character is full of mystery, it's great that you think of all about him. ^^

You're very welcome. c:
Ahh yea I was thinking about height and how it can change the overall anatomy! I will have to do more research but I'm pretty sure the body does appear longer than normal, but I would probably need to adjust the legs too. Since this character is pretty tall, maybe I can use that to pass it off! xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, make the legs start higher and be longer could be a solution ^^
As you try to draw him as an "anthro like" maybe you should make the start of the legs be the middle of the whole body, and make, head+body size = legs size.
But since you already make this, I think you won't take a lot of time before draw him perfectly. ^^

AWESOME! This looks really, really cool! That Nidoking looks badass! Anything with a scar on its eye is badass! Look at dem muscles too XD! I really love how hes wearing a chain and the different tattoos/patterns around his body. To be honest, i didnt even know this was an attempt at making a dragon Nidoking. I thought you just drew an anthro Nidoking in Draco's style XD. All in all, really awesone job Vir!
Also, no problem Vir! Like i do for Izzy, Doofy, and a TON of others, i'll always be here to support you
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you very much; that was my goal!
Ah yes, "dem muscles!"
Eh, that was probably because I didn't add wings. xD I was thinking about it but after some thought I scrapped them. That's okay too! xD Thanks so much.
I really appreciate that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No problem Vir! You really did an awesome job drawing this piece! You certainly are one badass Nidoking XD! So, what do the markings mean and what's the deal with the chain and scar? But yeah, wings might have helped. Its hard to tell he's even suppose to be a dragon XD. But all in all, you did a really great job mimicking his style!
No problem! You really are a great artist. You may not be as good as Izzy, but keep on this path and one day you will. Despite what Doofy might says, you are the nicest Nidoking i've ever met XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ahh I won't say what each set of them mean, sorry!
The scar is just there to be cool, while the necklace actually has a lot of meaning behind it. xD Again I'm not going to say it though. Eh, not sure if it's a dragon, it's more of a lizard I guess. xD (Which Nidoking already is pretty much.) To be honest I'm not sure what I went with but it was what was in my mind! xD Dracoice is a female, but thank you very much. xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Awwww, how come? Is it a personal thing? I want to know more about your character!!!! Yeah, its more like a Nidoking lizard than a dragon lol, but it still looks really cool nonetheless! It could have came out worse, but like I said, he's really cool!
Goddammit! I thought she was a he! I thought she was a she at first but then I heard someone call her a he too and I'm just so confused lol XD

Some of them yes.
That's okay, maybe it will be engraved in your brain now.

Man, this piece gets cooler and cooler every time I look at it lol.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wow, thanks, I didn't expect people to still be looking at this.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No problem! And of course I would still be looking at it. Its the first piece that pops in when i go to your page lol! But yeah, i really love how this piece came out! Like i said, it looks cooler every time i view it
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Oh ok, if and when you ever do want to tell me about them, im all ears. They do look cool as hell though
It sure is!

8D And Hatchling did well.

Thank you very much, I'm trying to quite a bit. >u <

Yes this does have Dracoice's name all over it! Well done!!! I love seeing the jumps you made in art since we met! Thanks for the mention! My pleasure!!
I think the leg balance looks great honestly! The left Knee might be a tad to high. Arms aren't bad either! It depends what you were after. His right shoulder looks rolled forward and if that was intentional then good job!
Yes tail needs a bit more tapering but not bad. Chest and abs look great! So does the head and neck muscles and overall muscle anatomy!

Thank you very much!
You're very welcome, you deserve it a lot! You have been a very loyal commenter, and you seem to find the good in things very well, while still being helpful. :3
Oh yes, it is a bit high, thank you very much for the info! 
Hmm, I'm not sure, I fiddled with the arm for a long time, I just couldn't get it to feel right.
It looked better in the sketch but then I ruined it when I made the lineart! xD I just wanted to get those larger lines over with lol!
Alright, thank you a lot once again!
