Every other month over on Patreon ( http://www.patreon.com/tygerwolfe ), I draw a name from the patrons on the Delta and above tiers ($10+ a month), and that lucky patron gets a free flat color, single character commission with a simple background (a $55 value!)**.

This is the result for February's winner, Ellie A.! She requested a mostly intuitional picture of her as a Utahraptor. I wanted to do a different pose than the ones I've done for raptors in the past, so I decided to go with a "dancing" kind of pose. Also inspired because the patron in question does belly dancing, and the coloration was inspired by her love of birds - sort of cockatiel-like in the feathers, with a bit of budgie markings in the red cheek spot.

**Patrons chosen for one month will be excluded from the next bi-monthly drawing to prevent the same patron winning two months in a row.
