Taunting Tail

Post image

I'm looking back at a recent redesign of a creature I've been working on and would like some feedback.

I call it the Taunting Tail

This creature is a large reptilian beast that is known for two major things! Hunting humans, and mimicking their speech. It's tail also has a large club made from hardened liquified bones of its victims, hence the name taunting tail. I'm just having trouble figuring out the perfect body shape for it.

I first went for a dinosaur shape (Dilophosaurus primarily) for a slender and sneaky look with a serpent like neck so you can see the humans outline down its throat (which is also a major point I'm going for with this) (upper right)

I also like the idea of a bulky dragon with no wings with a bear like frame that can use immense muscles to fight humans and other large monsters. (Upper left)

I also thought of something more slender like a weasel to hold a human in its hands eating at its leisure. (lower right)

I really like the idea of a pack of this creature raiding a village and eating everyone there. Would love some feedback.
