Wyvern Anatomy WIP

Description

Here's a preview of what I'm working on. I went with a wyvern because ~KatePfeilschiefter already has two quadrupeds that are better than mine.



I may still do a quadruped, but I'm not going to put nearly as much work into it.

Critiques welcome!

[EDIT] UPDATED: Colored some bones, followed some suggestions in the comments

[EDIT] UPDATED: Colored more bones, fixed some muscles, added standing view (top right)

I really like the design and the proportions of your tetrapod dragon, they are very clear and realistic. Even the tail is thin (lighter) and not thick like the common saurians and the patagius reaches the base of the tail.
But the first thing I criticize are the palms: they are very based on human arms; in flying vertebrates the wrist bends towards the ulna, causing the wing to rest on the thumb instead of the knuckles on the ground. In addition, the metacarpae lengthen, thus losing the shape of the palm.
I hope my contribution will be useful.
