For the weekly challenge "WIP Stages".

When I first knew we could spin the template, well, I did spin it several times, until the main reference I used for the concept, The Dragon God from Chrono Cross, came to my mind. It's not exactly it, as I said, the reference glimpsed.

As I knew we could also add a background, by the pose of this flying creature, I imagined it diving for an underwater hunt, much more interesting than a clear sky or an usual stormy one.

I gotta develop the creature's concept more, like its size (I imagine it with a short whale size), its habitat, and so on (:

The final version has 25 colors, but the entire animation over 60.

OMG OMG CHRONO CROSS EXCEPT NOT QUITE

I just adore the colors. The softness of the water and the bubbles really make this piece shine.

Pretty neat. Compared to the rest of the entries, you turned up with something decent and really nice. I hope this wins.

Me too. After making the underwater background and effects along, I noticed the second light source (the blue one) was gone =/
But I thought the underwater scenery was so interesting and worthy, a reason for the creature's pose... That I left it as it was.

And uh, I didn't get the your first sentence o_o

I would recognize st0ven or Snake here. Now I'm putting you in a row.

I must say I love last WIP frame more than final. Because of the shading.

I like very much the water surrounding him. But i think that the eye in the final frame looks a little strange, i liked it more in previous frames! However, it's only a detail!

EDIT: and i think a vote of mine is for you!
