OMG this is incredible!, its like Dragon meets Dunkeosteus. I swear Subnautica had to look to this for inspiration for their Sea Dragon Leviathon

Very cool. Did you look to the Sea Dragon Leviathan for inspiration? Personally I like the massive fins in this design more than the tentacles of the Sea Dragon.

He's smaller than the Reaper Leviathan from Subnautica x3 the 112 meter Sea Dragon Leviathan would have him for lunch.

Just imagine playing Ark: Survival Evolved and you're trying to tame a Megalodon, or swim away from a Manta when this giant thing comes out of the dark depths to tear into it or your tribe XD

I don't know where people get the idea that Behemoth and Leviathan are supposed to be demons. In the Hebrew Bible and the Christian Old Testament, Behemoth and Leviathan are described simply as part of God's creation.
So are fallen angels...
Fair point. But in the Book of Job, Behemoth and Leviathan are simply described as creatures of might that will not be tamed by the hands of men (paraphrased, yes, but that is the essential gist). And later, in the Book of Isaiah, Leviathan's purpose is stated to be simply: "to frolic". Perhaps I'm missing a passage somewhere?
As for this artwork itself, the creature feels ominous and foreboding, and the coloring and shading do well to highlight this aspect. The glowing eyes and the small scale of the human underneath do well to emphasize the sense of power one might feel if one were confronted by a creature of this size.
Job well done.

That idea doesn't come from the Bible itself, but from medieval monks and theologians who studied it during the Middle Ages. St. Thomas Aquinas used the Leviathan (along with various other Biblical creatures, such as the Behemoth) to personify the Seven Deadly Sins, with Leviathan representing the sin of Envy. While this does disagree with the Bible, it became widely accepted.

This is what the Leviathan in Atlantis: The Lost Empire should've looked like.

how did you get the bases for the pic?

Iron-Fox In reply to Destino696969 [2016-02-23 19:50:55 +0000 UTC]
Do you mean the color bases? If so, I had a very large folder of reference pictures to choose from and kept looking for more, from which to sample from. I sampled a lot of the colors from deep sea fish, sharks, whales, sailfish, etc.
for the body form, I mixed a bunch of different animals, sharks, salamanders, dinosaurs.

thank you very much, I really wanted something different than the usual serpentine like dragon.

It is a very cool design. But I feel like the head and especially the arms make him too humanoid and much less scary.
Personally, I would have replaced the arms with a pair of jagged fins, similar to the tail fin and make his mouth longer, with teeth that don't form a closed bite, but instead go between each other.

Cool, but a bit odd. (I've always thought of Leviathan as a sea serpent, not a really big fish. So that's why it's odd.)

Bye the diver is small enough so that the leviathan won't even bother trying to eat him.
