concepts blog [ Santiago added ]

I feel like I'm cheating here because the [free!] lineart for all of these was originally done by Moss, and I've just edited it to suit me better. So, I dunno. I'm not an artist. I just like thinking stuff up.

It started off with trying to find different things that the pelts/masks/antlers of every set could represent, but really the designs have just ended up being inspired by the set, mostly the pelt. Generally speaking most of my designs are pretty lame and unoriginal but hey.

It'd be nice if you guys could think of themes - chess pieces, body parts, different types of animal, weather, mythology - for me to experiment with, as well as all of these goddamn sets |: I dunno man dsfsdf I
get bored
I guess.

ANYWAY uh here

These are the only guys that don't have red or blue, but they have orange and green, which is similar. I think there's something different about the knights; perhaps they're known to be pretty disloyal rather than dedicated as they're meant to be, hence why they don't get the proper colours.
Anyway, they're faboo. |8
