Wurmler of the West

this was a character for a short story i did for flight 3
I was really dissappointed in how little of the life in these sketches made it into the final I drew my own character SO off model! I'm gonna do a new story for him someday
he's a young warrior with a rare sword called the dragons tongue which is forked like a reptile tongue and is very flexible and becomes hot from constant motion, hence the dragon aspect of it. the worm creature is actually a wurm type legless dragon that wurmler (the little boy) fights with doing acrobatic things
