Title: Creature design
Post by: Andrew May on April 10, 2011, 01:15:19 am
Hi everyone. Lately I was doing some WoT sketches for Mike and... well my mind started to wander and I came up with a whole bunch of new creatures that I thought would fit into the setting. So here's a few to start with, I hope you like them.

This fellow could be any size from a little bigger than a Grishak to as tall as you like really.... but always vicious!

I see these creatures as living in herds, herbivores, mabye the size of a musk ox?

This chap could fill any niche from beetle to sheep?

Mouse sized or giant anteater?

Sheep like beast?

Similar role to the fellow above, sheep mixed with wild pony type? Or a deer?

I like these a lot - glad you've had chance to show them here.
The groundhogs are excessively cute!

Stellar work, Andrew.

Like them, a could see quite a few of them made it to actual models - but maybe some of them it a 2 legged version ;). Always thought that the Grishak need a few friends - and could definitely see the first and the smashing fellow used as such. And the dino cheetah could be very interesting introduced into this game - cant imagine anything more fast attack than that.

And really like the concept and idea of having tunnelling beasts introduced.

A lot to think about here, Mike ;)
