Week 1: Garthim Soldiers (ala: Dark Crystal.)





The First week of Tag Team Tuesdays!

With Casey's suggestion, we started out with a pretty rad, and fairly obscure subject; the GARTHIM SOLDIER! Known from 'The Dark Crystal' this behemoth beetle was the brute force behind the Skeksis.
I always wanted to see more of these guys, and thought they were just amazing. When sketching out ideas, I got to thinking: "what's better than the Garthim? A f*cking Skeksis riding a Garthim! With that bad ass sword too!" (clearly, I was listening to some pretty bad metal).

After 5 passes at it, here's the result and the FIRST contribution to TAG TEAM TUESDAYS!






I call it: "hide yo Gelflings, hide yo podlings, cause we're draining yo essence up in here."

The original is for sale at a steal of a price: 25.00 USD (plus shipping) @ etsy
