This is some practice / study of a friend of mine on how to draw an anthro raptor body, in particular Blue.
The BODY. Not the HEAD.
I thought it is very nice, but you know how some artists are like, "No, this is just such a mere and rough sketch, no way I will upload that even in my scraps" but I uploading it here was OK and I thought it's too neat to never to be seen and may indeed be helpful for someone who wants to draw a raptor dude. (Or, in particular, Blue. Draw Blue! Look somewhere else for the head reference though.)

That looks very good!

Stick a rex head on him and I'm sure you'll find him very raptor-like!

So THAT's what Blue doesn't look like!

Note the feet. Blue didn't have sickles last I remember. ...which is pretty long ago.

I thought he did? Or does he have Heisenberg Uncertainty Toes?

How do you feel about scaly lips?

You know what I thought to myself as I viewed this image?

"My raptor's sexy."

In a country music voice.

If you understand you will know why I am conflicted as to whether it is one of the greatest or worst things my brain has ever done.

No, I don't have sickle claws, much less sickle claw toes. Just a slightly bigger claw on that toe.
Also, a Blueraptor has very little actual scales, if at all. But most people need something they can draw.
