SLIFER THE SKY DRAGON

This is Slifer the Sky Dragon from the Yu-Gi-Oh card game and television show.  When I was asked to make Slifer the Sky Dragon, the customer if I could make him similar to the length of Gyarados, but after looking at a picture of Slifer the Sky Dragon, I believe his body structure is more similar to Rayquaza.  So, my Rayquaza pattern was the basis of the pattern that I designed for Slifer the Sky Dragon.
