"Deep Flame" - Axolotl Creature Concept

Commissioned artwork for an Eldritch-like axolotl creature! Around 10 feet long, producing flames at the gills and sporting an almost lava lamp like belly, this ferocious yet cute creature is a beauty of the seas. Lots of fun doing this one, learned a lot in painting the fire, making sure it still reads under water and balancing the bubbles. Definitely a lot of artistic liberty here haha.
