Description
Bestiary artwork for Endless Realms, a D&D-like "pen and paper" fantasy RPG I'm working for.
It's been a while! I've spent most of the summer AFK (not exactly by choice, either, but I can't complain!), and a lot of the work I *have* done has been either private work or boring graphic design stuff - background watermarks, icons, and so forth. I suppose the most exciting thing I did was complete an Endless Realms art book - it will be available as a Kickstarter reward when Lunar Games launches their campaign next year!
The art director recently realised that we only had one intelligent subterranean race and asked me to design a race of mushroom folk - now, we already have a few mushroom creatures, but most of them lack any anthropomorphisation, save for the benign Fungloi, so I was wondering how these guys would differ from the others. I thought, well, we have a race of sentient plant people, so perhaps these are their subterranean counterparts? In designing them, I neglected to give them eyes because why would an underground race that lives in the pitch dark need them? Instead, I figured they could vibrate their gills to produce sound or other vibrations maybe not normally audible to other races to communicate with each other. With that in mind, I proceeded to design a fungal giant who I figured perhaps acted as their leaders or elders - I gave them numerous large bracket fungi, capable of issuing commands and information to its people all at once.
So... basically he's covered in a whole bunch of mushroom loudspeakers :V This guy is a living incarnation of the Saints Row dubstep gun XD

This thing is the equivalent of an Ent from Middle Earth, only it’s a Shepard of fungi, not forests.
