Some Research Images

I realised that in my last post I mentioned Kelpies and Ki-Rin - there's some good information here on Kelpie/water horse myth but I just wanted to post some images I've been using.
This is a Kelpie designed by Kazuma Kaneko, who does a lot of the art for the Shin Megami Tensei series. His designs are immensely precise and basic, but clever.


This is a picture I actually found in a place I didn't expect - it's an artists depiction of a Ki-Rin a chinese dragon/unicorn hybrid said to be even rarer than a unicorn. I liked the scaly look of the beast and want to work on some textures for my Jersey Devil/Kelpie/horse......thing.

I need to think up a name for my beastie >.>
