Hey, unjon, this isn't a sketch, but half a camel it seems.
Not much help for what you were looking for... but interesting.

So basically what you are looking for is a camel's butt, legs, tail (& 1 hump)?

(Yeah, I can sketch, but I'd need to know if that's what you are looking for.)

When in doubt whip it out. Just a quick 1-minute-sketch. Is this the right direction? I am assuming you are looking for line art (for easy transfer) or something with texture, structure & shade?

Not too happy with it but maybe not to bad for a 5 minute job... Let me know if you can work with this or if you need anything changed (or need a higher resolution).

- Yeah, it sort of slants to the right a bit. To give it a symmetrical look, cut in half, choose the side you like best & mirror (let me know if you need help with that or want a better sketch).
- I took out the leg bones from the 1st sketch. I think it looks better this way if you are going for line art (would only be needed for proper shading really).

perfect.. The slant is there because he is about to take a step.. The front will be a silhouette of a head and part hump.. The nose just forward of the trike fork..

Thank you thank you

I'm sorry but the tail needs to be doing a swish in one direction and a set of twisting stretched balls torquing in the other for counterbalance.
