Is it possible to 3D print the dragon? I know many companies make a lot of money by producing these toys lol.Β

Yeah Its definitely possible to! I'd have to split the parts for printing but its rather easy for me to do.Β

Been on the program for years.

I actually use sculptris myself and only wish i could afford zbrush

Hahah true. I've been on several trial doses of ZB myself. I'm on the educational version(50% discount) or "free" at school and once my job starts its possible I have to buy the full version if the company doesnt have it.

Fantastic work! Excellent-looking muscles and anatomy Β

It looks quite good, although it may just be the viewing angle, I feel that the hips/tail, and upper chest/pectorals should be somewhat wider and stronger.

Yeah I think the viewing angle doesn't provide that much information as to the width.

Ah, I see. I'm mostly speaking in that I feel the chest area especially, should be rather large, to help further accommodate the shoulders and wings, the membranes of which I think would probably stretch a little lower and longer.

I see. 
The only issue on that is that stretched membranes are a pain for riggers and animators when its for games. Otherwise I'd completely agree with you on that.

Very spectacular, the details are impressive and look plausible. Though I'd say given the level of detail in the musculature on the rest of the body there's hardly any wing muscles I can see, while those should be rather large in order to lift the dragon in the air (look at what the pectoralis major/minor are like in birds). Personally I'd also make a stronger hind leg as it looks kinda lean (in most vertebrates the hind legs are more powerful than the front ones) and a thicker proximal end of the tail, like it was in the typical theropod dinosaurs.
Well.... you asked for critiqueΒ Β

Oh no don't feel bad. Its a hell of a good critique thanks! 
I based the end torsal anatomy on that of a dog/horse with a lion's frontal anatomical features (stronger grips and thicker limbs). I added the bird arm anatomy and gave it some lean wing omoplate hooking muscles in back of the arms but I think you are right on making them buffer and bigger. Β I did model this wingless at first haha. Β I proportioned it to dog hind legs with added bottom so the legs are pretty thick. I did calculate what you said. I think the wings give them an extra boost so the whip tail and legs dont have to be too big. You are right however. I should exaggerate that part more. I tried to give it this type of tail but with exaggerated plating:Β www.sccf.org/images/photos/phoβ¦
These little guys whoop you with their tails. xD

OooOoo looking incredibly neat so far! Very ferocious looking face and horns after my own heart.
It looks a tad nude on his flanks and hips/start of tail Maybe some rougher texture scales there too?

Yep, colors/textures arent done yet so its def true.
I'll prob post as grey version soon or infact just replace it for now.
