Piasaby ~kyoht

Traditional Art / Drawings / Illustration / Conceptual

Concept design work commissioned by the table top RPG company, Pay Master Games. This will be turned into a miniature for their game Going Native: Warpath. Piasa are chimera-like creatures from Native American folklore.

The face was based off of this illustration, as the art director took a liking to that design (used with permission): [link]

Graphite.

I have never seen any mythical creatures of Native America depicted before, other than Coatl. It is so very awesome to see these glimpses into their culture.

Ohh I love this designs

observing all the details is very inspiring. They must be even more awesome in colour.

I grew up in St Louis, middle of Missouri had a piasa bird painted on a cliff that had been "refreshed" in recent times before it completely washed off the rock face. I can find hardly ANYTHING on them now it seems, even with the internet... it's refreshing to see one again, you did a great job on him!
