Description

Based on an idea from @siphersaysstuff , this is a less humanoid take on Mr. Sea/Mr. Sky. The idea is that they are both equally adept on land, but taking to the sky or the sea requires a painful rearrangement of anatomy. The wing crunches/collapses into a fin/flipper or a fin expands out into a makeshift wing, as one head moves to the front depending on who is in charge. 

I’m not entirely sure how to handle Mr. Sea’s limbs. Walking on the side of a flipper is too clumsy for an effective land form, and I don’t want to infringe too much on HodgePodge’s asymmetry. If I make Mr. Sea my hated enemy Tanystropheus rather than the more iconic Elasmosaurus it’s an easy fix, as Tanystropheus had full arms and legs rather than flippers. 

Maybe something where he walks on the tip of the flipper like a crab leg, keeping the swimming arm more humanoid as a part of the alterations made by the dark heart? Once I figure out the basics of proportion and arrangement, I’ll play with which side of the torso the given limbs and tails line up on.
