Fire Gila

Description

Edit - Edited the grass, tried to make it look better, added details to the head and added some other details.

A creature born out of fire and earth.

8D This was so much fun to make. I'm finally getting the hang of fire and lava. XD And this is my contest entry for #I-create-a-own-World where the theme is Hot like Fire. I was inspired by gila monsters and other desert lizards.

Creature Info:
Element - Fire
Habitat - Open lava plains
Diet - Charcoal and ash

This creature feeds on charcoal and ash. The ash gets sucked in the holes at the side of the head where it gets burned in the centre of the body. When the pressure inside the creature's body get too high it releases pressure through the hole on his forehead and on the side of his body. Lava may also can leak from these holes. When the creature comes in contact with water, the lava on his body turns to solid lava. And it goes into a hibernate like state. In order to undo this state the creature leaks lava from his holes to burn the area around him and thus making ash that he can inhale for reheating his body and making the lava flow again.

Enjoy!!
