It's the Year of the Snake (or it will be officially next Wednesday), so I drew my fursona as an Anthro Naga; I have always been fascinated by snakes, especially when seeing them on our yard. The previous two houses my family's lived at, we've seen Garter Snakes but where we're at now, we've really only seen Gopher Snakes a handful of times (and mostly because they looking for chicken eggs or mice to eat around the pumphouse).

So, I drew my sona as a Garter Snake (a Valley Garter Snake, to be precise) Naga and I'm thinking of drawing him as a regular Anthro snake later on. As I've said, my fursona is really a shapeshifter, as a means of drawing him as various animals I fancy, especially ones I don't normally draw (like when I drew him as a Eurasian Lynx over a year ago). For the pose, I just used various reference photos of dudes with their hands on their hips; I was originally wanting to draw my Sneksona reading but couldn't find decent beachy pictures of shirtless dudes reading, so I switched to something more basic. The hard part about this was the lower portion, I tried looking at pictures of actual Garter Snakes before basing it off of a Naga drawing I found on FurAffinity. I also tried to draw out the scales using a smaller Sakura Micron but gave up after realizing I couldn't find any decent references for the belly scales.
