This was meant as a commission for MetalSoldierc02 [link] , but then I was thinking to give it away for free, for some reasons we had. So, then is not for this contest [link] ...

About the creature; I didn't wanted to do anything that looked as if it couldn't walk as most 100 headed dragons. The main head is probably the one below the other ones, the one with the short neck, but the one with the longest set of horns in the middle is also more important than than most heads. The other ones are something between a snake and a sauropod, many of the heads are not seen on screen, some are on the other side and some are just lost inside the other necks, but I think it is not even necesary for it to have exactly 100, for easthetic reasons I decided to make it looking as if it had less, after all, centipedes do not have a hundred legs. To aid balance and efficiency I moved some heads to watch all over the body, by the way, the heads spit not fire but molten metal that has mass and therefore not only burn but also hits reaally hard. The wings are also used while walking, I've noted that dragons, being huge creatures usually don't do this, for reasons I cannot understand, since having an adittional set of limbs would be very useful to sustain an animal this size. I made a really heavy tail to conuterbalance the heads.
Thats all.

Smelling of semen all under the garden was all
you were needing when you still believed in me.
:iconwhalewithlegs:
dude, this is an epic achievement ... I like how the wings have become loadbearing limbs and especially like the detail you gave to the tail! It really resonates that this is a dragon that has kept growing beyond its normal capacity, maybe a take on a defect of the hydra effect.

This is... so gorgeous <3

Awesome work! :heart:

"Wow man this is really fucked up" Was the first thing that came to my head when I saw this. This is not just big this is gigantic. It's not beauty or nice I don't see a place for that monster in any of worlds but still this is gigantic, precise and so complicated it deserve to be seen.

Ever wondered what would evolve if the dinosaurs had never died out? Discuss this and more at the Speculative Evolution forums: [link]

I almost missed this one but the 'Cento' part of the title caught my eye. That's just wicked work.

...and I just read all of your description... the only place I have ever seen a dragon using it's wings to walk is in the movie 'Dragonslayer.' That particular dragon had very bat-like movements when it did that. Other than that, not sure I've ever seen it but it would make sense with some types of dragons.

so. much. detail.... I love this. the design the idea the expressions. Again the amount of detail in your works always amazes me and I always find myself looking into the picture to see if I can't find something new. I really enjoy the guy in the corner for size comparison, That is really a monstrous creature.

Me gustaron los detalles que favorecen a un mejor balance incluso mas que todas esas cabezas, una cola masiva y el uso de las alas como extremidades me pereció muy ingenioso, no mucha gente se preocupa de que su dragón de 100 toneladas pueda fisicamente estar de pie

whoaa face :O

Absolutely amazing
