Inca Character Design 3 🐮

in #art6 years ago

This is yet another character I did about a year ago as part of a commission themed on Peru going to the Football World Cup, Russia 2018. So the idea was using elements from the Peruvian Folklore mixed with either landmarks from Russia or WorldCup elements.

This one is based on the most recent Peruvian folklore, after the conquest of the Inca Empire by the Spanish the mixing of both cultures became a fertile ground for a new set of myths and tales...and the Torito de Pucará is one of such, symbolising good luck and fertility be it for agriculture or pregnancy.

This is awesome stuff! He doesn't look like much of a runner, but looks like he could be one heck of a goalie. Fantastic choices in mixed culture in order to deliver this nice piece to your customer. Bunches of creativity in this one.

I showed this to my very young niece and she threw my phone away. I had to dust my keeping skills. Haha
