I reeeeeaaally love this pose, I need 10.
The third version looks so good with the big swirl! Long tail yay. Maybe something like this could work?

I really like the way this dragon's hands and toes are drawn.
Also really enjoying these new tail redraws. I like it in the corner there, I feel like it fills the "box" more effectively and has a more pronounced and recognizable silhouette and I do think pulling it further away from the feet would be a good idea.

Swirl tail is a good tail. Is he/she spinning? That would be so funny. Spinning, about to thwack someone real hard with that tail. Like a whip.. oof..

I love the new tail, it looks much nicer - fills in the empty space.
But oh Windsinger those back legs bug me. It feels like the (dragon's) back left needs to be turned? Or the (dragon's) right (the one lifted up) needs to be at a different angle, but idk what.
Also it kind of looks like part of the fin is missing at the base of the tail? Since it's there on the near side but not the far?
Hope it's not too forward, but maybe something like this?

I think the back leg looks fine. It's suppose to (I'm presuming) be planted on the ground, so none of the underside of the foot is going to be seen from the viewer's perspective.
If anything I think it's the proportions that are a bit awkward. It feels like the back leg needs to have its tibia lengthen a little more. Right now it's like this breed has thick quadriceps, a stumpy calf/lower leg, and then [i]huge[/i] feet with long metatarsals. Which I'm presuming is the intended design idea, like this is suppose to be a breed with stocky legs. But it makes for some odd/tricky proportions give the angle this is drawn at.
I'm looking at the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/frd/3240274/2#post_54209170]original sketch[/url] for this pose, and the length of the back leg in that sketch feels better to me. It's also a lot clearer what that leg is doing. In the current line art, the front/nearest foot is blocking where the calf line of the back leg should be, which I think is what's causing me to feel like the back leg is short/stumpy.
The more I look at it, the more I think that back leg just needs to have its length and extension pushed more. Like extend the canvas and give that back leg a few more pixels to breath lol.

I think this looks the best personally. There isn't anything wrong with the back legs or feet so just smoothing the tail position looks great

This looks so cool!
Something about the base of the tail bothers me, though. It looks at a bit of an awkward angle in relation to the rest of the body. the tail and hindquarters look close to a 90 degree angle which looks like it'd be an uncomfortable pose to be in for the dragon
