    I am so damn annoyed that it have to be bipedal.
    Is it acceptable that the mount is standing on two legs, but walking on four?

    It bothers me as well. Not sure what people where thinking, honestly, but it is good to have some diversity in mounts.

    Bipedal is defined; ''using only two legs for walking''. Thus I would wager that walking on four doesn't meet the criteria.

    I suspect some were picking contradicting options just for lulz to see what can come out from a set of incoherent attributes monkey-47.gif I'm sure none of those who seriously were going to draw it picked bipedal normal-37.gif Though I must say, only bipedal requirement bothers me here, rest is ok. ​​

    Here is example of such mount (without feathers though):

    Removed.

    It is example only ("how to sit").

    Riteeee.... Great example. Sadly I meant people are not showing where you will sit or how. Since this is an important feature may be worth pointing that one out. Tho not 100% important.

    I am interested in the does it just have to walk on 2 legs or can it have more legs than it walks on question?​​

    Aha, that would explain it :D
    Just the scetch, will do a colored version + might do some changes, rider will sit in a chair made out of bones on the back, I will draw the chair also to show howlater on, this is just to keep my idea so I can finish it without stressing.

    A mount made out of Lion, Ram and a Chinese dragon.

    It's special features are glowing and flaming eyes. There is also flame around it's mane and around the hips. Mounts golden mane should have a moving effects and wave slowly like calm water waves so as his long mustache. As for feathers I added some around Kimeras head from which the mane coming out.

    Since the mount has to be running on two legs I decided to make its body from raptors figure, he will be running like one as well.

    Hope you will like it :blush:

    It doesn't look very mammalian, but I like what you're going for. Good luck!

    Or someone could just be hella hardcore and make a huge snow bear with glowing red eyes eating a bird with curled horns. The rules never said it had to be one animals with all these features... You can make the bird ancient by throwing some symbols on it.

    @grinoir#7035 Try now? Not sure if there's some backend time restriction so I poked at some things - hopefully it works! Hope it's not post count related.

    At thread - these are some amazing concepts so far!

    Someone should design something where a player sits on a shoulder and their embraced spouse sits on the other.

    Surprised no one has made Harambe as an angel and a demon. Demon horns with glowing eyes because he killed a kid, angel wings because hes a god...
