A retro 80s anime-style sci-fi dragon in dark futuristic armor with glowing blue and red neon lights, standing against a dark, abstract tech background.

Retro 80s anime-style concept art of a sci-fi dragon designed for a low-poly 3D mobile game. The dragon’s muscular, organic body is fully visible beneath and between the armor — scaly skin, visible limbs, and natural flesh textures. It wears heavy, spiky futuristic armor that is clearly mounted over its body, with visible straps, joints, and mechanical connectors — the armor looks worn like a suit, not grown or merged with the skin. The armor is plated, sharp-edged, and features glowing neon light strips (blue, red, or purple), giving it a powerful retro-futuristic energy. The dragon has two large curved horns, expressive anime-style eyes, and detailed facial features drawn in classic 80s anime aesthetics (inspired by works like Guyver, Macross, or early Gundam). Its wings are organic and leathery, but the wing bones are covered in segmented tech armor plating — still keeping the organic and synthetic parts clearly distinct. The art style should reflect retro anime visuals — hand-drawn look, bold outlines, cel shading, limited but high-contrast colors, and dramatic lighting. The silhouette should be clean and readable for easy adaptation to a low-poly 3D model. Focus on clearly showing: the dragon’s body underneath, the separated armor pieces worn on top, and a strong sci-fi anime presence. Background should be minimal, abstract tech, or space-themed to keep full focus on the dragon. See more
