Dagon

Since Dagon was the first boss we designed the briefing was quite open. I just tried to think of interesting ways how he could protect himself since we knew he was gonna have a shield ability but it wasn't clear if would be magic or not. So I tried a couple of crustacian-ish ideas. I also did this sort of demonic version of Ursula. Joe liked it and did his magic and made a rough sketch based on that idea. After that it was just figuring out how certain details would look like the face and his armor.
