Katcher created the creatures using a digital sculpting program called Zbrush. Katcher takes us through all of the steps he took to bring these dragons to life, beginning with a simple sketch.

Dragons in Game of Thrones are the most visually stunning and "realistic" dragons to have ever been created in my opinion.

@pf5658 3 года назад

I love any movie, show with dragons. Even though they’re not real creatures I’ve always been very fascinated by them. I just finished watching the last episode of series Yesterday and I honestly wished I had watched this show years ago because it was really darn good. Of course, my favorite part were the dragons. Never seen more lies, deceitfulness , betrayal and murder in any show or movie until this show. WOW!

@hindsightpov4218 4 года назад

The thing that bothered me about the GoT dragon designs is below the elbow, the wings are barely attached to the body. It doesn’t look like the body is supported enough to fly by the wings. The body of a bat is completely supported by the wings by comparison. Other than that, brilliant dragon design.

@tootbender6935 2 года назад

Yeah if the membrane reached to just past the hips then it would be good, any farther and it would cause air resistance though.

Drogon was not done growing when the show ended. Dragon’s can live for centuries and Drogon would have likely grown to be much larger than Balerion the Dread.

@Ned-nw6ge 8 месяцев назад

I’d say that these dragons have the most realistic designs I’ve ever seen, but I’m gonna have to look af Syrax for that (even though the CGI of House of the Dragon isn’t as polished as in Game of Thrones). Cause if there’s one, very important thing that Dany’s dragons miss that Syrax does have, is the wing membranes attaching to the root of the tail instead of just in front of the pelvis. With their hips being a heavy point of their bodies, Dany’s dragons wouldn’t have been able to take off and create enough lift to stay aloft (at least not horizontally) with that extra necessary wing membrane missing between the first wing fingers and the root of their tails. I know dragons don’t exist and these are just tv shows, but the painfully inaccurate wings has been bothering me since the start, especially since they wanted to make the dragons look as realistic as possible.

@SireDragonChester Месяц назад

I do love dragons from GOT. They are best Wyrim dragons ever made, better than Skyrim dragons imo. Though I wish they were 4 legs. 2 wings dragons in GOT. They would been so much more deadly if they had 4 limbs and 2 wings. But we all know that in nature. There nothing comes close that has 6 limbs creature in mammals, except maybe insects? The only other myth that 6 limbs would be centaurs. The Wyrim dragons in GOT do make more logical sense in GOT lore. So I do understand why they went this route. I just wish we got more wise/friendly/charming movies like HTTYD or Dragon heart or Eragon. Dragon heart 1 is still my favourite dragon. The rest dragon heart movies were kinda bad Except HTTYD. we’ve haven’t had 4 legged/2 wing dragon moved since. All other western 4 legged/2 Wing moves or tv series with dragons have been horrible. Eragon is perfect example. Sapphire was good looking, well design dragon. Everything else was horrible. The scrip of story, the actors were kinda bad except Jeremy Irons, everything else was just bad, or done so cheep. I’ve never read the books, but hear they 10x better then movie ever was.

@potatomatop9326 3 года назад

@Vanessinha Colson dragons have 2 legs and 2 arms. Wyvern's have 2 legs and their arms are like attached to the wings so it looks like they have no arms which makes the dragons look alot more badass plus wyverns are skinnier.
