KAI - FIRE DRAGON

Kai is a dragon master and loyal companion to Chadwick, both serving as protectors of the sun element and masters of fire. I wanted to create a hybrid dragon-lizard with an unusual wing structure and sharp bone spikes covering its body, drawing inspiration from multiple sources.

The character was sculpted in ZBrush and Blender, with hand-painted textures in Substance Painter and Photoshop. Rigging, animation, and rendering were all done in Blender. This piece was a challenge where I combined all my skillsets to bring the concept to life.
