Hey all,
I'm back from my long weekend of long weekendingness, and I bring with me my treasured conceptual arts, for your viewing pleasure.
The first is what I think we're calling a "Weasel" (well, it hasn't been superceded by anything else, to my knowledge), which is basically a scrawny, (more) stupid, faster version of the standard Sheep. I was originally looking at making something more decrepit and hunched-over (similar in posture to either the Hungers from TES: Morrowind, or the upcoming Bloodletter models for Warhammer), but I decided to just make a more gaunt, feral version of the Sheep instead, since the pose can really be worked out in the later stages. I imagine these guys to have a "down-on-all-fours"-style hunting pose, almost like they're always ready to pounce.
Now we have the Oxen, the enormous, slow brutes. Probably standing between two and three metres tall, things such as fantasy ogres and trolls helped me to get a grasp on the proportions, whilst I once again looked at ramshackle, sci-fi improvised armour in order to get an idea of what sort of protection this guy would have. Dan originally suggested using a car door as chest armour, as well as using a sign (with concrete slab included) as a melee weapon - I think it was meant to be a stop sign originally, but I elected for it to be a disabled sign, because, if you survived an attack from this guy, it'd really just be adding insult to injury.
And, also, the Shepherd concept again… with the topknot, because Kodie liked it.
Well, that's me done for now. Peace out.

Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies…
