Exclamation Character Design Troubles

I don't normal like to use the Process for help less its actually process related but I'm in a bind right now and would like some outside opinions besides those from the DA crowd so here I am.

I'm currently in a drawing block for ideas and I think it is cause of my character Wyvern. I'm stuck on her appearance after a major change in my story plot changed her into an octo girl. Now I don't know if I should stick with that or go with her origanel look as they both have things I like about them.

Asking for full opinions on what I should do. Octo or Origanel? Please help! DX

If you like how they both look, try drawing whatever features you like on a single draft. Thats what I think you could do. Worked for me before.

Well... my guess is that what form she should keep is largely dependant on the story and where you want to take it. If it is simply a matter of picking the one that looks better, I would say the Octo one.

Octo looks better but perhaps you should go more squid. more interesting head shape a beak for a nose (even if octo) plus you get 2 more longer tentacles that can be arms.

And permits you to use growth to go Giant.

There was a cartoon called tiger sharks that had Octavia who would transform octo.



BTW Don't really understand why the tail
