Monster March - Wyvern
I’ve been travelling around the past week so haven’t had much time to draw. I also didn’t play around too much with a unique design but this was still fun!
Немного драконов.
Gonçalo’s banded wyrm, a marine wyvern from the central Atlantic island of Antillia. It occupies an ecological niche similar to that of seals and was well-known to sailors and sea captains who often observed them basking in the sun on the rocky Antillian coast.

Amphithere:
Amphipteres generally were said to have light-colored feathers like a sunrise, a serpentine body similar to a lindworm, bat-like wings with feathers covering most of the forearm and often greenish in coloration, and a long tail much like a wyvern’s.

Drakes are wingless dragons, often portrayed with four feet. There are several cultures originating with the term “Drake” translating to “Dragon,” including German, Dutch, Germanic, Latin, and Ancient Greek.

Eastern dragons possess many animal-like forms such as turtles and fish, but are most oftentimes potrayed as four-legged snake like creature. The Dragon is also a beacon of strength, and good fortune, and power, for those who are worthy in East Asian cultures.
