Personal - Come Fly With Me?

TwilightSaint

Say hello to Jaeger, the newest dragon and fursuit to my squad! He was just finished two weeks ago, with his first photoshoot and public outing this past weekend!

This guy is the first fullsuit I've ever made, head and all! He was tag-teamed over the past couple months with my friend, Starrik! A fursuit maker themselves, Starrik helped me through the process. He features:
-Foam head, vinyl horns, 6+ individual feathers
-Front zipper
-Feral-style, hand-sewn hand paws designed by myself
-Tons of seal fur!
-Chibi wings that flap quite nicely
-Removable digitigrade padding, patterned by myself
-A legit 8' long tail

Jaeger is the MAN! I loved designing this guy. If it isn't already obvious, he is a 'Blue Angel' Dutch Angel Dragon, mostly based off the design of the US Navy demo team's F-18s, with some other nautical aspects thrown in there. (Heavy emphasis on blue and gold.) Being Active Duty, Winged Naval Aviator myself, this guy's design means a lot to me personally.

He features the colours and nose-back stripes like on the jets themselves, and the fiery colours on his feathers represent the full afterburner! Dual golden stripes represent the typical rank of the Blue Angels team pilots, although I've made them gold to hint that Jaeger here is on the 'Golden Path,' for my fellow military brethren.

Pale blue tints fade to sky blue on his belly, representing the all encompassing blue of Navy Aviation, from the sky above the the ocean below. And, with being based off of the F-18 Hornet, his face shape is more slender than your typical Dutchie, featuring an aerodynamic, pointed snout.

Oh, and by the way, his callsign is 'Chuck,' if anybody was wondering. B)

Realistic Ultimate Reference Sheet is in the works, folks!

Jaeger - Artwork, Design, & Fursuit (c) myself, TwilightSaint - Any tracing, copying of the design, recolouration of this photo, or creating derivative characters heavily inspired by Jaeger's design & Navy theme are strictly prohibited.

...

(Please also note that I emphasize that Jaeger here is the ORIGINAL Navy Dutchie. Reason I emphasize this is that it's been brought to my attention that, after posting teaser shots and a couple quick shots of the fullsuit on places like Instagram and Twitter, another individual is attempting to recreate a dragon that looks like Jaeger and steal my idea and design for profit. As mentioned above, this character and design means a great deal to myself, being in the military. So if anyone happens to come across someone blatantly copying my design and idea, please bring this to my attention as quickly as possible.)
