Every faction needs a leader. For the beasts, we ellected a shining, magnificent beacon of glory to be king. We elected someone who would embody all that the iconic king stands for.

It just so happens that the beasts have a bishop as well and here is the creature that is the bishop of the beasts. Don’t worry, it doesn’t bite… or scrath… or use evil magic… unless it does.

Here are some shots of how the initial meshes were built:

And the Pawn:

And these for good measure:

Next up, the King and the Bishop…
Can anyone guess what they’ll look like?
