Thanks for working on this!
A few additional things:
- Some of the design is getting cut off on the left and right sides of the page (see image below)
- I would stick to using more symmetrical circles, because Polkadot really doesn't ever use any blob like circles in their designs
- Some of the colors in the animation aren't part of Polkadot's branding

This is an updated design for the 404 page.
Also one note, currently our 404 page works locally e.g. http://localhost:8000/develop/networks/bruno but does not work in production: http://docs.polkadot.com/develop/networks/bruno, I believe this can be fixed by configuring the underlying Nginx/Apache server to serve the 404 page.
