  1. Congratulations man, theese are some of the most beautiful creatures i' ve ever seen in my life !

  2. I didn't like the writing on the last couple seasons, but credit where it's due; the dragons looked fantastic

  3. 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.

  4. Imagine your husband is the one making the design for Drogon 😵‍💫

  5. they appear much better than the dragons portrayed in house of the dragon

  6. If only adipurush team did this much hardwork for the dragon used for ravan they could have avoided so much of hate

  7. No one is talking about drogon and rhegal looks same

  8. The Guy who is designing the dragons is sounding like "Robert Downey Jr."

  9. If you reading this…

    Have a good day!❤️🌟

  10. Dragon Tales, Dragon Tales. It's almost time for Dragon Tales. Come along and take my hand, let's all go to Dragon Land

  11. You guys did an amazing job.
    Drogon looked so realistic.

    He looked 10 times better than Smaug and I’m sure Smaug cost 10 times as much.

  12. The dragons were a huge part of the show, and I felt they were unceremoniously killed with no fan fare. A bit disappointing.

  13. In theory, dragons are much more maneuverable than sailing ships. Why didn’t they fly around and attack the ships from behind? Frontal assaults are almost always stupid. Worst episode of the entire series.

  14. Awesome job with this video. Im currently learning this skill so it was great to see what is ultimately possible in modeling, sculpting, and in animating. Thank you.
