Abstract

According to Craig Stitt, artist Charles Zembillas drew a variety of dragon concepts while searching for an ideal design for the Spyro character. The artists ultimately cut the head off one dragon and attached it to the torso of another dragon, creating this design which became the basis for Spyro.

Abstract

Before Spyro had his final purple color palette, Stitt produced this green-and-teal color treatment for Spyro using a photocopy of the original design. See "Spyro the Dragon in-engine character color treatments and animation samples ("Rainbow Spyro") [VHS]" for later revisions of this process.

Abstract

This video (labeled "Rainbow Spyro") was produced at Insomniac while deciding the colors for the character Spyro. See "Spyro character color treatment" for Stitt's first attempt at this process.
