Rupee The Dutchie Reference Sheet
Finished the reference sheet of my Zelda themed Dutch Angel Dragon, Rupee! He's based on an adoptable I purchased years ago. I just loved his design and the idea of my favorite game series represented as a character, but some parts of his design just didn't resonate with me, so I gave him a complete overhaul! Originally his design was heavily inspired by the Crimson Loftwing from Skyward Sword, but I decided since Dutch Angel Dragons are sort of feathered horse bird dragon things, he should be more of a 50/50 between the loftwing and Epona. His hooves, paw pads, claws, and tongue are supposed to be a shiny metallic gold, but this is a flat color reference, so I kept it as a solid goldish color. All the white fur on his body is a longer, wispy-er pile inspired by the long fluff on the ends of Epona's legs. His feather's match the long wing feathers of the Crimson Loftwing, and his horns are inspired by the Ordon goats from Twilight Princess. His tail is also sort of a mixture of a stumpy dog tail and a horse mane, since the original design I purchased had a curled shibe tail like the loftwings.
Sorry for the wall of text, I just put a lot of thought into his design and there are even more details I could talk about but this is long enough ahhaa....
