My first series of images is kinda a rough idea of the sort of snout/head (& eventually, body) this guy should have (in order of importance, so #1 is the most-fitting):
- **THIS GUY
(nice armor plates)
(also nice head plates)
(gooey swamp beast?)
However, a bit more searching revealed the fact that all along, I've basically just been looking for a really good Wc3-interpretation of the
Baloth from Magic: the Gathering (seriously, just Google Image Search "baloth").* Here, then, are two
excellent examples of what this guy should look/feel like:
- **PLUS THIS GUY
(cool ram horns & skull-face; burly upper body)
And I just like the face on this one.* Not sure how it could happen with all of the above, but meh.
(#swag)
On a side note, these two are some interesting takes on the whole "gill/fin" thing for the head.* The above is more important, but with whatever space is left, gills (like these?) might be the way to go.
