User blog comment:BannedLagiacrus/Discussion of the Week: Monster Concept Art/@comment-5020152-20160430140430

1) That blue Hypnocatrice-looking thing (second picture in the last gallery) and the Crypt Hydra, definitely. Maybe the third Yama Tsukami concept, too. Oh, and some other monsters in the last gallery - the Dunkleosteus, mutant Delex, and inflatable leviathan.

2) The last Laggy concept. I don't know why but my mind went straight toward Jar Jar Binks when I saw it. Laggy will never be the same again...

3) I couldn't really care less about the concept art - it makes for interesting trivia, but it doesn't change my opinion of the monster as a whole.

4) Yes, because they look f*cking awesome.

5) Going by the examples listed above - not really, no. Look at those Chameleos concepts, for example. I'm glad we've got the dragon we ended up getting, and not a real-life chameleon with wings stitched onto its back.

6) Another question I can't be bothered to answer.

7) I don't know, but that last Yama Tsukami concept reminded me a little bit of Bacillus from that old Godzilla TV show. And the second Gigginox concept looks really cool, like something you'd see in Star Wars.
