Here is my interpretation of a realistic Gyarados. This concept was started in 2015 and was completed recently.
I hope you like it...
September 2015 - January 2017
The first line art and base colouring for this concept...
The rough coloured concept - this particular colour pattern wasn't used for the first final piece but I like it so much that I'll clean it up for a variation of my design.
the finished main concept - completed on iPad Pro...
a size comparison of an average Gyarados and a 6ft scuba diver
with the quick background I originally made for my realistic Lapras (coming soon...)
