For the dragon in this movie I am thinking about using feathered wings instead of skin and scale based wings.The idea came to me as I was taking pictures with my camera and came across some swans. The look and angle of their wings looked like they could fit well on the body of a reptile. Another reason for this is that I have not seen a dragon of this type before so it will be an original design.
After having this idea I then took lots of pictures to choose from. These included the lake near my home for the background, various wildlife and the family pet.I created the concept image in Photoshop. I did this by taking the wing from the cygnet (young swan) and then adding it to the picture of the pet bearded dragon (the lizard).
I used the magnetic tool to select the wing of the cygnet as I needed a rough concept quickly to see if it is possible.
Concept names:
Pegasus DragonDragasus
I find myself leaning towards Dragasus as the name for this creation.
The link below was the tutorial I used to help create the concept image.

In conclusion I feel that this design has work well and the next step is improving it.
