Creature Design - Dragons, Basilisks & More! 

Dinosaurs in a fantasy world is such an interesting idea 💡 I LOVE IT

I think some sea monsters would be good for this series,my favorite snake is the spider tailed horned viper

Fantasy world dinosaurs are the cool idea people should use more.

Damemotaurus is *PERFECTION*!

I love the more mammalian dragons Edit: damn this blew up

Didn’t expect to see a saurian inspired creature but I welcome it. I also like that Boreal Dragon. If I were to suggest a couple ideas, a Blink Raptor (a raptor that teleports) and a creature inspired by the Partridge Creek Monster.

I know you probably have a lot more ideas left in the tank, but when you complete all these creatures you should put them side by side for a size comparison. Kinda like how monster hunter does it. Love your art man!

Okay I love the Carnotaurus look Daemataurus has. Very nice detail on the skull like pattern.

Bro this man right here makes the most beautiful dinosaurs and fantasy creatures it’s just amazing

One of the best episodes of creature design you got here so far! I love dragons and reptiles and dinosaurs, and everything here is super creative and original, but also stunning and awesome!!

My favorite Dino is the Carnotaurus 👍love the design

Love the Howling Fjords music from WoW used in the Boreal Dragon’s segment.

It's official, your Boreal Dragon is 999,999,000,000,000,000% super ultra awesome. and I totally love it. ^^

I've always enjoyed the Bush Viper for its texture

i love dragons!!!

I’m going to love this

You made a Basilisk with Basilisk Lizard inspirations. Nice.

Can't wait

I honestly couldnt pick a favorite out if these designs. Id love to see you do an insect design.

So a cool idea for the boreal dragon would be that it prefers to live in colder biomes to stay near a plant that is imbued with ice magic and eats that to fuel its icy breath, and the color of its wings and the more white on its fur is an indicator of how much of this plant it’s eaten and absorbed and the dragon itself is mostly vegetarian but can resort to eating meat when needed. And since this is a magical world instead of it being rare as in terms of not many left, I think it could be more of a too dangerous to find kind of monster, since it lives in cold places reinforced with natural ice magic from the earth, it’s too dangerous for many to go because they would freeze instantly.

the daemotaurus is my favorite!

My favorite snake is the King Snake, a very cool snake that is immune to the venom of most other snakes!

You know what just about every fantasy world has? a giant rocky creature that people mistake for a large land mass.

Hell yeah Back at it again. Let's see what you make

Dude I love the daemotaurus the carnotaurus is my favorite Dinosaur and gilla monsters are my favorite lizards plus I'm from Texas myself so I love the thorny devil as well this is definitely my favorite of your designs by far

The Daemotaurus looks like your own Tyrannosaurus but it sounds like a Carnotaurus.

Honestly. Never thought a FULLY FUR’D UP or just have fur as the main thing for a dragon would actually look cool.

Gilla monsters are my favorite lizard finally some love

Day of dragons hire this man please

A gold weaver spider design with some gold webs would be a pretty cool design to mix for an arachnid monster

i like the daemotaurus he has great color .👍

Im So excited! I accidentally came across this channel a week ago when i saw your second monster design videos and i instantly decided to subscribe!

15:16 i love the Darmotaurus it looks Epic and Powerful most certainly a Monster Hunter Based Creature! 🤩

That a very unique design, very nice!

One of my favorite animated series featured a dragon that had the fur and head of a bat but was still easy to read as a dragon.

My opinion but dinosaurs are basically just drakes without magic, they match the typical drake perfectly

I'd love to see a creature with a vastly different wild and domesticated variant, to perhaps show that the humans of this world have been taming and breeding this creature for a long time

Daemotaurus is my favorite so far!

Your dinosaur at the end reminded me of a drawing i did of a carnotaurus with a gila monster pattern thats really cool I like it

Another banger episode.

Titanoboa historys largest snake is one of my favorite snakes.

I love that you say you are making your monsters more fantastical, but in reality, they really could fit in the Monster Hunter universe. I guess it's just good creature design either way.

Im hyped

I share your interest in Mammalian Dragons and for the fantasy world I'm cooking up for a Homebrew D&D, I try to base my Dragons off of Synapsida, specifically Gorgonopsia. That way it gives me a reason as to why all these different breeds of Dragons can be related but have various different traits.

Boreal dragon. It is a dragon adapted to cold environments, its diet is mostly composed of fish and other mammals in the colder region. Unlike your typical fire breathing dragon that stores, and uses bones and hair as a fuel source to shoot out fire, Boreal dragon has developed a sac like glands that produces liquid like substance that quickly freezes upon contact with cold air

Your art is amazing! My favorite species of snake is the ball python, which is why I have 10 of them. 😁

THESE ARE ALL SO COOLLL!!!! :O

Love to see your world and creatures in a book someday.

I loved the different take on the dragon a wooly dragon based on the musk ox was (pardon the pun) a really cool design. Also I liked the basilisk design you went with I also think a snake like baskalisk looks cooler it would have been cool if you had done a baskilisk based on a cobra or mana maybe even a gaboon viper. I really love these designs for your fantasy world and the creatures you are making.

Damnit, I will be asleep but I’m watching it first thing tomorrow morning !!

Boreal Dragon, Looks So COOL Basilisk, So Terrified Daemotaurus, verry looks like Carnotaurus

A nudibranch based dragon would be cool or a leafy sea dragon

The Daemotaurus ended up great! The pattern and texture really amped up the fantasy vibes. Are you planning on having the dinosaurs and dragons be related in any way?

Really awesome!!

Time to design some monsters

My favorite snake is Green Anaconda or King Cobra

You should definitely colour your second drawings. I would have loved to see the top view of the dragon with colour.

A mammalian dragon, that’s interesting.

You should do a bearfolk race specifically an Arctic one

Fantastic as always~! LOVE the Daemotaurus, though now I need to pivot for my own personal project, since I had a creature very similar planned XD

i love the daemotaurus!

i like any pit viper or bush viper

a very cool dragon. snap, snape, severus snape. I got a little drunk while writing this, the last because t-rex

Keep up the good work 👍

It’s been awhile, I got busy with life n stuff so I couldn’t watch any of your new vids. I’m a little late but I loved the Houndoom Monster!! And loving the new content!! Also idk if it’s intentional but the fact that Daemotaurus literally means Demon Bull makes it so much more cooler!!

The boreal dragon's face reminds me of King Caesar (look him up, he looks cool)

It would be so cool if you made another dragon that based on the folklore tho

Excellent dude, you keep inspiring me to draw more creature design, thanks man 👍. Dragon was my favorite btw

I like all your creatures but DAYUM, these are some lovely creatures!! Amazing work josh!

Rattlesnake, Anaconda, Rock Python (Because Scarlet Johansson), and Titano boa.

WOOOOOOO, that Boreal Dragon looks very Interesting, Badass, and Powerful! I Love it! It reminds me of a combination of Teostra/Lunastra and Rankin Bass's take on Smaug! Great Idea on using the Musk Ox as Inspo for this Dragon! I do hope the most Powerful and the most Apex of Dragons resembles something to the D&D Red Dragon, Black/Red Elder Dragons (like Fatalis, Safi'Jiiva(my #1 Favorite MH Monster obviously. XD), or Alatreon), Grigori/Dragon's Dogma Series Red Dragon, the Red/Black Dragons of WoW, etc. That would be so SUPREMELY PERFECTLY EPIC/BADASS! Sorry, I am bit of a Dragon Nerd! XD Your Great Basilisk looks Epic, Intimidating, and Regal! Basilisks are some of my top Favorite(non-Dragon) Mythological Creatures! Love that you combined both the Anaconda and Basilisk Lizard as inspo for it! Oh my GOD(ZILLA), I LOVE THE DAEMOTAURUS, INSTANT TOP FAVORITE! Tyrannosaurus Rex is my #1 Favorite Dinosaur, and combining inspo from both Thorny devil lizards and Gila Monsters is such a Fantastic Idea! Looks like a Powerful, Monstrous, and Legendary True Apex Predator! Despite being Incredibly Aggressive, I can see them being very Protective and Caring Parents! XD

Make a creature survival game atp i would love playing as creatures like thiss

My fave snake is the Lataste's Viper. When I was younger and lived in a completelly different part of my country I found one in my house. Our neighbour had to kill it because apparently it had previously been getting into people's houses and they had no other way to dispose of it, it looked really cool tho.

It's color design looks just like Primordial Malzeno kinda

7:06 It's the Jesus Lizard!

Should give the dragon fire breath to show how it uses its inner body heat to counter act the cold

Show us baby boreal dragon arctic animals are always so much fluffier when they're small I'd like to see that

Musk ox + dragon = *IS IT BANBARO TIME?* ... More on topic, the last time I designed an original "snow dragon" I also chose a mainly brown color scheme but with blue (not white) decoration They were a closely related species to the standard ("fire") dragon to such point that they could even interbreed (but not strictly hybridize).

It's just a little guy I have one in my Australian back yard lol

This is going to be kind of a weird one, but I think your take on an olog hia would be absolutely amazing.

I’m pretty sure there’s a variation with eight lives of variation with six legs and just long snake boy

You should make a creature design for creatures of sonaria

Teostra's body is almost similar as that

Ngl for a second I thought it was unoriginal and cliché that u we’re making a spiny Rex but I was quickly proven wrong by how amazing the art and ecology turned out tho I have one question, why does it need that armor? Is it interspecific combat(fights between the same species) related? Or r they prey to someone who we haven’t seen before?!😮

Daemotaurus.

I'll be honest brother your creations are godlike I'd love to see what you can do though in the game series such as ark survival ascended to think of what you could do if you learned how to use the dev kit to bring you creations to a relative life

Wow I guess you are different creature Artist designer I ever thought for respectful with William O' Connor the person who made the 5 Books of Dracopedia.

Josh Can you please make a sand viper based creature in your universe

Can you do wendigo,emela ntouka,bunyip,dingonek,anikuk,zabrak

I love the Daemotaurus. What is the diet of the boreal dragon, is it a omnivore?

U sure did put "the drip" in basilisk and daemo. Even tho I personally think dragons and dinosaurs are one in the same I gotta admit that daemotaurus is top notch 👌🏽

Does the first dragon give anyone else pangolin vibes?

I'm curious, how long does it take to make each monster?

I will find the person who took your corn snake and do things I can’t say on this platform

Hi, im new to the channel and I have a question. Ive been having a hard time trying to come up with a horn design for one of my own creatures. But I want it to look unique and not just simply have it be a Rhino or Triceratops horns on it. At the same time though I want it to look believable and realistic looking and not look like some one just glued a random object on its head. Any tips on that? 🤔❓🤷‍♂

Deamotaurus looks like a carnotaurus

What app and tools do you use for drawing this stuff

SHOUTOUT THE PEOPLE WHO GUESS THE ANSWER RIGHT !!!

7:35 aw that sucks :(

bro i have very similar idea for world creation as you.
