I must say you're pretty lucky if you can imagine how a snout should look like. I leave that part entirely to the artist's imgination, I just decide if it's ok for me or not.

You can imagine her however you want tho, that's the privilage of imagintion after all:P

Essential for me( regarding her body/figure) was to give her the proper credit as she has in the story, there she is considered beautiful after all. I've seen all of her versions, trying to make a dragoness pretty even for dragons is no small feat:P But I think we managed to do that, hence she has a rounder butt and thicker thighs to give her that proper curves and a cute face to match.

We all have different tastes, but for me she is pretty.

Especially when I came up with her character years ago, seeing those words describing her taking shape into a rather seductive body wise dragon girl is really fulfilling:P

Yep she is quite pretty.
'Years ago' how long have you been writing and planning this story?

I've been writing it for four years now.

There is no planning, it's entirely improvised. However characters that show up(except Coriza as for now, I never planned to make her as a character) were planned from day one. Four years ago exactly:P Many of them we still haven't seen yet.

I mean I don't know how are they going to look like just yet, but I already have their personalities to some degree(thank you music!).

I don't rememeber precisely now but I think Iris was introduced in book 3 or 4? That is maybe around two years later when I started writing and four years when she finally got her picture. All that time she was in my head.

It's a wonderful feeling to see things you imagined come to life.

Four years and 1.029.425 words. You've gotta skill and some patience it would that me 50 or so years to do that and that would only be a rough draft

I don't know if skill has anything to do with it, patience for sure not:P I never got tired of this, after all these years I have the same passion for this as I had in the beginning, maybe even more. There is something, I don't know what really, but making things alive somewhere out there in a world that is entirely in my head is extraordinary

The picures you showed are the typical "fantasy dragons" style. Ok maybe not the first one:P I have a hard time telling what is what myself:D

Whenever I ask someone to draw a dragon for me they ask if it should be either spyro style or fantasy style. The first image I got of Flare looked something like the second pic here, they seem to feral there. I always go for Spyro style since there they retain that youth we saw them have in the game and it perfectly fits with the late twenties period of life in human years I imagine them to be.

I imagine Coriza to be what I would call the center point of all extremities:P. I imagine her to have a deep, silvery voice that you like to listen to, but not a body of a playmate to match it. She is petite, what you would not call hot, but cute. A priestess with a crooked bite, which she is practiced in hiding, but I think in the pic we would have her fang or some more teeth slipping past her lips:P Even personality wise she is extreme considering her profession and the way she carries herself.

Basically she isn't the type many would call sexy, but nevertheless alluring for males who like that type of girls. I mean Flare calls her pretty/beautiful all the time so she can't look like a hag:P

I don't know about you but I always considered petite girls extremely cute (I mean like pros to the good-looking appearance).

I have nothing against small or tall, not important to me at all. The thing is, in this world, the popularized sexy body is made of big ass and big tits. Hence the "not standard type"

Body appeal aside, having Coriza petite maks things interesting art wise, I can only wish luck to the artist I'll comission when the time comes to draw her:P I have no idea how to create a petite dragoness with pretty legs:P
