Ah, corpse eaters (though from that maw, "swallower" or "grinder" might be more appropriate). Β A very notable niche of monster, but one that I don't believe has been filled by Tolkien. Β Very depraved and diseased looking.

I don't know if you have ever seen or read The Plucker by Brom, but this looks a lot like a few of his creatures from his book. Still cool looking, keep up the good work.

Freakin' awesome design. I love those skin textures. Somehow, though, it doesn't look very Tolkienesque. A bit too wierd and alien.

Thanks,
I agree it's not very traditional-fantasy. I think that was because A) This was my first assignment and I was far more comfortable with sci-fi stylistics and B) it's design was based on a not-very-tolkienesque monster that already existed in the game, the caveclaw, because they are supposed to be "related."

Woooah, creepy monster. He kind of looks like a really nasty mole, and has definitely given me a new-found fear of zombie rodents....
