Agreed about the forelegs looking somewhat awkward, but apart from that, gorgeous, man!

This is really neat, though it feels a bit structureless in the front legs. Love the way you did the paws though, very dinosauric :).

Thanks, yeah I lost the form of the front legs after I put the scales on. I was trying for a dogs legs but a lizards feet (I don't really like dragons that have sort of "paws"), and I wasn't sure how to handle the transition if it should be digitigrade or not... still lots to learn about them creatures.

Hmm, I think if you bent the elbows outward that would look lots better already. Right now it's hard to tell where the elbow is at all so the arm seems almost a straight line that connects directly to the shoulder, which is odd obviously.

Despite the fact that I've drawn them like that often (paws for feet), I actually prefer dinosauric or human-like hands on dragons too.

Haha yeah I thought as much. Good rule of thumb; the upper arm is pretty much always equally long as the lower arm (the bones). If you don't deviate too much from that rule it shouldn't look stiff/odd.
