Description Zealix the feathered-serpent, a member of the Quetzalcoatl Clan .

He's one of the four heroes in my novel I'm writing about my harpy-angel character, Finch, and I love him ;u;. So, I wanted to draw him again (here's his last reference/time drawing him: [link] --he's changed a bit~)

He's Finch's mentor, in a sense (though not the stereotypical, old wizard mentor!), and a very kind-hearted snake. He has problems though: that collar around his neck was put on to inhibit his magic by the harpies who capture him, and now he has to get it off somehow, because otherwise he'll eventually die from complex reasons I don't want to type (DO I KILL HIM OR DO I NOT? You'll have to read the eventual story, which already has 58,00 words -proud- BD).
My favorite thing about him? He has a little sister (like 7 or 8 human years-oldish) named Lumina, and he's adorably protective of her. -loves brother sister relationships x3-

Do you guys like his design? He's kind-of of a phoenix-colored serpent. His name obviously comes from the words "phoenix" and "zeal" ;D.

Copic markers (they're so bright XD!)
Zealix and Finch are © to me, kthnx.
Comments = ADORED! and remember, faves are good, but comments are better |D <3.......any comments at all ;;...

I'm officially jealous of your Copics. Every time I go to any art store I always pick one up and draw a line on the paper and sigh. And then put the marker back and walk away.

I love the treatment of the scales, very loose but still textured and shiny.

He's adorable! I don't work well with markers, which makes this even better, to my eyes.

Only thing I can say is that the fire spots on his back aren't very... noticeable. If you didn't change the fire spots on him since the reference sheet, or they're dark when they're not in use, shouldn't they be a bit more yellow? It's kind of hard to see them in this picture. I wouldn't have known they were there at all if I hadn't looked at the ref.

Thank you so much!
........teehee...you caught my mistake XD. I was hoping no one would notice xD. I drew him without my reference and completely forgot about the spots. So, I tried to add them in at the end |D. ....But the spots now are just decorative anyway, since I x'd the idea of the fire shooting out, at least for now, but they SHOULD still be the lighter color |D.
Good spot, though XD!!

Tell me how you write so much, Kaliiiiii ;o; I've only written like, 10,000 words this month xD; I fail.

I really like his colors! And how his plumage flies away everywhere (no pun intended, promise) and his eyes, too, as others seem to notice xD As above, I wanna read Finch's story post-haste!

Woah he got so much BRIGHTER. XDDD!!!

I love how the shading of the feathers and scales is really loosely done so you just get the impression of the texture. ;^; And your white highlights are ALWAYS a nice touch! XDD <33

Agh, I can't wait to read your story, Kalico! You have already greatly improved since the last time you drew Zealix. Those colors are wonderful. You used two of my favorite together (crimson and gold). His eyes and expression of "I know something you don't know..." are excellent and so is the muscle anatomy along the back. Keep up the wonderful work!

1000 words is a good start !! Go for it--writing's a lot more fun than I thought it would be x3!
And thanks ;u;! I wish I could post my story to the internet...but I'm too worried it could get stolen or something D:. So....maybe someday (or maybe this'll just be in my dreams |D) I could get it published...AND THEN YOU could read it :'D! Hah, wouldn't that be awesome? ;; -dreams-
