1 FLEET-FOOTED LINDORM
“An interpretation of the mythological lindorm, inspired by a line I’d come across in a mythology book that described a dragon with the ability to outrun horses.”
2 AQUILA
“A combination of study and design practice. The lifestyles, anatomy and mannerisms of real animals are the best source of inspiration for creature design. I often turn to birds for dragons.”
3 THE YALE
“Done initially as a class demonstration, a concept sculpt of a little-known creature from European myth and heraldry, known as the yale or eale.”
4 JORMAG THE ELDER DRAGON
“A sculpt and model done for my work at Arenanet on Guild Wars 2. Jormag is a gigantic, cunning, god-like elemental dragon with a body composed of snowcovered glacial ice.”
