No, although Poe's "The Conqueror Worm" was partial inspiration. Originally he was supposed to be a lot more grotesque - pulpy tentacles instead of claws, a head like a worm (earthworm, not wyrm worm), and a really gross paintjob - but while doing the head I started making it into a goat head, and the whole thing sort of turned into a dragon. I work more by inspiration than planning, so it happens.
