[WIP] Meeting the three overground heads of the Onozar Wyrm

Unfortunately this was a catastrophic lineart on sketch layer incident (I made the bg the same colour as the sketch so u can't tell), so it'll be a massive hassle to finish but whatever it's doable.

I will do their faces properly to match the other drawing of this wyrm I've done (the green and red one). The underground heads are the ones with the heavy digging limbs and jaws.

The wyrm of Onozar village is one of the more well-known of its kind. Although this is all one monster, with an unknown number of heads, each head (consisting of the humanoid head & torso at the end of each neck) does act slightly different. The wyrm seems to favour certain heads to express certain emotions - there's a head for arguments with people, one for polite conversation, etc. Since this is such a gigantic creature, it may be that the typecasting of each head is an effort to meet humans at their level, like a person wearing finger puppets with exaggerated emotions in front of children who see each puppet as an individual thing who is always happy or sad. I'm so tired and I hope I'm getting this across properly lol you get me. you get me

The settlement was named after the wyrm, who was there first. it's one of the more built up areas in this world and might even qualify as a city, able to grow larger than other settlements due to the shield against crawling beasts provided by the wyrm. It expresses itself aboveground using three heads consistently, though as many as seven have been spotted in the city at once, on rare occasions. One of the consistent heads is an advisor to the king.

#queue #i rlly like the simplistic look RIP about the lineart incident 😔

[ID: Photos of a clay rectangular relief sculpture of a Przewalski's horse. It starts on the left/hindquarters as a low relief cave painting and then becomes more realistic and higher relief to the right/front. The head is fully 3D and turned to look outward. The first photo shows it against a marbled paper background of blue, green, and white. The second photo is the same but leaning against a white wall. End ID]

Painted!

NEW ALIEN AGAIN! This one I wanted to stick to being more Earth inspired, connecting with my roots. I'm calling 'em Styraphants cause they're mostly a mix of styracosaurus, elephant, and mollusk of course. Trying to make a quad walking sophont always lends to kind of a centaur-ish body plan, so tried to think outside the box for appendages this go around. They've got a pair of trunk tentacles around their mouth that they use as their hands, which have a fleshy 'zipper' to slot together at rest. They also smell/taste with them so gloves are a very popular purchase.

Oh also! Their eyes are on little stalks that peak out around their frill, they can hide them away if scared. Also all the fellas pictured here are gals! They have a male/female system in keeping with the Earthling megafauna theme.
