Well, my idea is a traditional foggy graveyard...and a nightmare in form of a horse(remember Heroes of Might and Magic 4!) Might try some FX/dynamics...

I am totally in love with this. Moving on...C&C more than welcome! Are the proportions right? Do the folds make sense?

Well DUH!!!
Of course I used model reference. No image planes though.
For texture I'm thinking about ashy skin, flame-colored mane and tail.
May be some smoke coming out of nostrils...if timing is OK. then may be a rider...

I decided to stick with low-res base object for rigging etc.
