Here we have some design work for Axolanda, a kaiju that plays a very prominent role in the Big Boy Now series. It’s obviously based on an Axolotl but I wanted to give it a unique spin. It’s essentially this series’ Pikachu. And like Pikachu, you’ll see this creature get stronger and stronger over the course of the series. It may even transform into some different forms. Watch this space!

However there are still some aspects of the design I am trying to iron out. I’m undecided if it should have this pattern along its back or not, so I’ve included the plane version. What do you guys think?

It’s really cute! I think I like the version with the pattern the most. This might be a strange comparison, but with you mentioning that this creature will become stronger (and possibly have alternate forms) as the series goes on, the pattern reminds me of the way tapirs are born with markings (for camouflage), then lose them as they grow.

Would you consider not including the back pattern on the arms and knees?

If you’re considering making it transform into different forms, maybe some should be like salamanders, since axolotls basically spend their whole lives in the form of juvenile salamanders. That way, it would kind of make sense if it got closer and closer to an adult salamander!
