Feudal Japan Gyaos

I kept the whole redesign very simple in order for it to still be recognizable as Gyaos. The first challenging part was trying to keep the more bat like resemblance and avoid too much dragon especially with his long tail. But I feel like was able to achieve that balance. The most difficult challenge was getting that head shape right for it to look like Gyaos. I had to look at the original design from different angles and looks at shark heads to get that shape. Again very difficult haha.
Overall again I keep it simple and not do too much craziness with the design. It was also important that I had to depict Gyaos as a very fast flying creature which is why he looks all slim and red pink is a good color for him too.
