Taotie(Chinese gluttonous ogre)by ~KarenAtLarge

Design Challenges / Mythical Creatures

Taotie is the elder son of Chinese dragon. It's famous for gluttony. The chinese characters of Taotie is 饕餮, I made it part of my design, you can find it in front and back.

This is my first time to attend the challenge of deviantart, the color limitation really drove me insane, hope you can enjoy it

A fat dragon ? That's an interesting idea.
The colors are a little dull maybe, but ok, I think.
I dont really like the forms/ the design of the dragon.
It just looks a little strange to me.

Aha~ a mistake. in the Chinese myth, Taotie is the son of dragon, it only has head.

Thanks for your comments!
I also think the color should be improved.
My original copy has over 5 colors so I have to change it in the last mins.
And the original feature of this animal (Taotie)is not a dragon, it mainly looks like a lion.
