Commission (realistic budget)

I write reasonably successful fantasy books - and create scenes in Daz based on those books, sometimes for adverts.
Unfortunately the dragons in my books do not look like typical dragons so I was hoping to get someone who knows what they're doing to make what I need. (I'm reasonably competent with Daz, I just don't have the time [or desire] to learn everything I would need for this.)
The closest existing model to what I need is Alessandro's Deinonychus (with feathers) and making it look more like the book cover image here: actual wings, longer neck and tail, and feathers with changeable colour arrangements). I did ask him directly but he wasn't interested.
The pixie dragon is another possibility but it doesn't work scaled up and has too many limbs (yes I can hide the front legs but the scaling is an issue). The HH Wyvern is the right shape and size (I suspect the original cover artist used it as a base model before painting over it) but it's far too spiky and no feathers.
I don't know which would be easier to modify.
As mentioned in the title I do have a realistic budget for this.
If this sounds like something you could do pop me a DM (or you could email using my handle (at)gmail.com - make sure you get the number of "d"s right).
Attached: book cover showing the cover artist's version of the dragon - and an example of my own Daz work for funsies.
