Here’s a sneak peek at a major line of Terrors in my first book, Terra Tamers: Alpha! Rockongs of all maturities appear in Terra Tamers: Alpha. As my second design, and the only full line of Terrors featured in the book, I spent more time streamlining the process and adding some fun effects to the art.
At this point I can usually do a Terror design in 2 hours or so if I can find a strong reference image to a real animal. That doesn’t include all the fun effects I did to line art.
The biggest struggle with black and white sketches was making sure the armor was obviously different from Rockong’s natural hide. There’s a stark transition from Adult Rockong to Elder Rockong’s armor because I realized it would be much cleaner to have a higher contrast on the armor and hair. The main focus was for the design to read well as a concept rather than be overwhelmingly complex. The white background probably doesn’t help the armor stand out. Lol. Let me know what you think, dear Patron!
