Backstory of Rána

Inhabitants of the mountain of Emyn Muil, the “norna Quendendil” are creatures that tend to generally keep to themselves, as they naturally don’t care to associate themselves with any other race but their own.
But is this tale true? There is one song that the Bards of the Prancing Pony never sang.
During the great battle that was fought on the Plains of Dagorlad against the mighty Saruman, these brave beast known as the norna Quendendil, fought bravely alongside the elves. It is the elves that the norna Quendendil cherished the most, the only race that were able to calm the Emyn Muil dwellers.
The elves were very silent about their ally, and the norna Quendendil appreciated this gesture.
Now that Sauron is blinded with madness and the very fate of middle earth is yet to be tested by the might of the growing power of Saruman, these brave beast are once again called to battle, to fight again alongside the Elves as they Battle for Middle Earth.

Enough backstory for ya? :smiley: enough of that here’s the pic, didn’t get him totally finished but it’s pretty good I figured. The original character concept was based on a drawing by “bizarde” in my inspiration folders. back to Maya, toodles

Thx Leigh :wink:

#15

Cool, be glad to see it grow within Maya…I’m a LW fan, the interface in Maya was frustrating for me. When I have a surplus of patience I need to do the same and get into Maya as well.

#16

Holy thick muscled massive heavy armored beast …Exxxxcellent concept. From it’s hooves to it’s wide grimace of a smirk it looks stellar…Bring this bad arse into the 3D World and look out for flying flesh…How much does that weapon weigh??? :wink:

           Very nice idea, that's a real full fledged beastie........Nice .:thumbsup: :beer:

            Yes Maya Lil'..............We go forth together. But still don't forget Max to go along with it.The best of both Worlds.:beer:
#17

I dunno…seems a little iffy. :stuck_out_tongue:

Can’t wait to see the model for this guy take shape lil’d.

#18

pff, nothing good :wink:

but, it could have been good though, if you hadn’t posted it in the challenge area :wink:

glad to see so many old faces joining in, showing of their talents once again, it’s almost impossible to get a good look at everything.

work work work, no time to lose if you should be able to beat me :wink:

:wip:
