Hrm, not sure yet what this will be a god of, possibly pestilence or contagion… I’m also not sure if it’ll be 2d or 3d, but I’m leaning more towards 3d since I’m working on some 2d ideas.
Originally this god was going to be composed of two symbiotic gods in one, Carillon and Tocsin, that form the one god called Tintinnabulum (I liked the idea of the sound of bells or alarms to signal its coming, seemed creepy, and the word seemed cool to me though maybe it's too forced, lol...). Now I'm thinking it may just be one god but I suppose it doesn't really matter <shrug> :P
I like the idea of its long hair becoming like clouds and covering the sky with pestilence or something like that. Though I'm not quite sure how I'll do that with a character (my experience is more in environment art), so maybe the hair idea won't work too well. Maybe this god can have a black veil, hood, or some sort of crown to replace the hair idea.
I figured that since manikins look kinda creepy and emotionless, I will probably skip any strong facial and body features and will leave the head and body more like that of a manikin.
Each of the upper arms of the god are composed of two forearms lined with teeth so they can slash and grab things and put them in the cage formed by the forearms. I may throw some rats in the 'cage', depending on how far I get with the size restrictions. The feet are living skeletons, with arms clutching at things and dragging along the ground.
I scribbled a few ideas that came to mind. I'd be happy to hear what people think, pros or cons, my brain's a tad fried now so off to bed, lol. Thanks and good luck everyone :)!
