Artist's Comments
Artist: Zephyri
Concept: The Forest Ancient Initially dubbed the Forest Demon by the settlers that first discovered it, thanks to it's extraordinary mating behaviour. Usually a dormant beast, well equipped with tough exterior hide that even the most experienced hunter would be hard pressed to see in it's natural habitat, the only time these huge behemoths move is to engage in the unwieldy act of sex. The females announce their coming into heat by beating their enormous slab like tails against the ground, to which the males respond with a haunting cry, edged with the rustle of the dead fibrous growths that form their camouflage, and then slowly move across the forest, following the echoes. My entry for Conceptart.org's Creature of the week challenge. The challenge was to create a creature based on a small audio sample which suggested something big and heavy to me, and after a few thumbnails, this creature was born! Apologies to those who've already seen this once... my watch and comment list, along with actually having this turn up in others inboxes seems to be on the blink, so trying from scratch again. |

Aim for the stars, live your dreams.
I love the attention to detail, it's simply break-taking.
The moss/lichens stretched between the two jaw sections evokes a gruesome element that gives me the shivers.
I especially like the tail and back legs.
Excellent piece.
