so for anyone who has read the chronicles of prydain, this is my attempt to draw gurgi, the part human part animal creature thing. i've always had trouble picturing what i wanted him to look like. here i decided to go with a sort of gremlin look with an overly large ET head :P i actually like his overall construction - however, i do need to find a model for next time to get the lighting on the body correct - i'm not doing so well faking that. sad day.
anyway i chose this pose as the quintessential gurgi, because he is always worried about people hurting his "poor tender head."
It's Gurgi protecting his poor tender head! He was always one of my favorite characters. I think the face is very Gurgi-like. I just always imagined him with somewhat more hair, because he was always collecting leaves in it after a fight. I'm looking forward to the next rendering.
ReplyDeleteyou're right about the hair. i also need to stop giving him a freakishly long torso. i think the next gurgi installment will definitely have to be a crunchings and munchings image.
