For Belial’s redesign, I was going for more of an organic look to him as oppose to making him look like a robot. Basically I designed Belial as some sort of Hell Golem, where the red parts are a nasty, fleshy muscles while the black part is more of rock like armor. The design language is more like an organic hard surface but still staying true and faithful to the original design. It was important that I kept the design simple in order to make it recognizable as Belial and have that Japanese design language. Important notes I had was to avoid making it looking like transformers, venom, and as much as possible like an iron man suit.
