ALRIGHT FUCKERS
Remember the Dirawong?, That Legendary I proposed two thread ago of so?, Well, here's a drawing done by the awesome drawfag Noaj-T that, in my humble opinion, is simply stellar.
It's only a headshot, so be mindful that this is pretty far from finished. Still, there's a few cool things that I think is worth pointing out about the design.
The tongue is blue as a reference to the blue-tongued lizard, a real world animal that was said to be a shrewd trickster by the aboriginals. The skin is yellow because of some paintings of the Dirawong and the Rainbow Snake together in caves (like in ORAS but in a realistic way, not detailed murals magnificent as fuck) where the walls were of a yellow and reddish colour, this gives it a ceramic-like aspect that goes on to reference the clay idols the Aboriginals would no doubt have created and how the Dirawong is not only a God, but also a landmark. The rough edges also go on to reference this.
The thing on the neck, which you must be wondering about, is a reference to the name bite Dirawong received from the Rainbow Snake while they battled. They said it left a red mark so we went with exactly that but making it look like a tribal painting.
Please, do give your impute on things you'd like to see on the design and please remember that even the head is far from done, so there will be many things that will be added in by the end that we just didn't have the time to make.
Also, for whoever doesn't know what the Dirawong is here go some links:

Also Dragon/Rock is what Noaj went with for this one design, but I'm more of a fan of Dragon/Ghost or even Ghost/Dark, since Rock generally sucks as a defensive typing.
