Early Dragon Design

Early on in the preliminary stages of House of the Dragon I was lucky enough to be asked to help come up with idea's for how the dragons could look in the show. These were done working directly with Showrunner Miguel Sapochnik. Just a small selection here, the main image used of mine was an early design for Syrax (though obviously not Copper Red!). Constantine Sekeris and Kirill Barybin went on and did many weeks of brilliant hard work designing all the dragons!!

N.B Sketches done on paper with chalk and charcoal pencils, then worked up in Photoshop

This final concept I produced was released by HBO back in December 2020, it helped inform the design for Syrax
