CONTEST!!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!!!!

Your task!!!!... is to draw your own personal "Aardrii'd" character...

The Aardrii'd are a species of water dragon... they all have primarily the same look....

No two Aardrii'd look the same (colors are different) In fact they are alot like horses.

Their "mane" placement is usually the same. except colors of hair can vary they all usually have a colored streak in their bangs... (mane is made of the same material like the hair on a tarantula, especially like the hair you can find on a crab when you look carefully)


Mouth color is always yellow... (unless you draw one resembling on of your own characters, and the character happens to have another interesting mouth color...) mouth is never red, pink or any normal mouth color. (includes gums, tongue, etc...)

I recommend drawing an aardriid based on one of your original characters
example
or one resembling your personal traits...
Crystacian is my personal Aardrii'd.... though she is rather metallic for a female... females usually have duller color than males...

Also, you can add any small details to them as you want... such as...

* you can change their wing size (or make them bat wings)
* you can add horns, different nails etc...
* you can change their hairstyle if you wish (mohawk, long hair, different bangs... etc...)
