Concept Pipeline - Behemoth Ice Drake
Being the first day of December, we wanted to give you all an early (cold-loving) Christmas present. In today's post we are taking a look at one of the concept models for the Behemoth Ice Drake. We have been working on this off and on for a long time, before we illustrate a 2D concept, we create the 3D model. This is Variant A which is inspired by, well, I'm sure you already know. ;)
The Behemoth Ice Drake is semi-aquatic, able to swim in the frigid glacial waters of the Winter Winds with ease using his powerful crocodile-like tail. Of all the designs we've toyed with, we really like this body. His strong powerful but slow body, thick scales, large teeth, kingly crown, and deadly horns.
The horns are not final, as you can see this is just variant A, the idea behind these horns is that they'd be used for combat, not for feeding. For feeding, he'd feed on fish in the glacial sea/lakes where the horns would not be in the way. But we are also looking at other horn styles before we finalize the design.
The Behemoth Ice Drake is the last of the Kickstarter dragons to conceptualize and model, and will be one of the largest dragons in the game.

I still wanne get KS but I missed the start off the game TT,TT
same here :(
Worth every dollar, my dreams of a good dragon game are coming true
a little confused about the kick starter thing :/. Does it mean that only some dragons are only avalible to kickstarters?
They will be auto-unlocked for the kickstarters. Other players will need to unlock them or be nested in.
Yeeeesss! Another drake! I like them very much and I was so sad the ASD was the only drake of the game...
I love the body so much omg! Perhaps the horns could change, but otherwise, heart eyes
I kinda hope they change the body a little bit, it looks a lot more slender than bulky, and if I remember correctly this guy is supposed to be like a class 8 or 9 which makes him just as big if not slightly smaller than a Sand Slayer, But with his stouter body composition and his very underwhelming shoulder width, he'd look super awkward being that big?
Wishing I would have known about this game so I could have backed it and gotten this 😩 this looks sick
I love this design but if they have to change it I would hope they keep the body but I hope this is the final version
Ooooooooh yeah, real good!
He reminds me of the alpha from httyd 2
I think this will be my new main 😂
wow the horns are so cool
My main!
Oml he is terrifying and I love it keep up the great work 👏
I love that body, but the horns just don't seem right. With a body like that I feel such a creature would use tooth and claw more than horns for combat. If anything just take away the horns and leave it at that. Or could give him some ice like spikes. This would give him more defense while not necessarily hindering mobility for such a large dragon.
I’d love to see the other horn variants, these ones don’t look that useful for combat.
The final version will be revealed with the official concept reveal. We don't want to spoil it. :)
