At last! For once and for all Hugo Farley has finally found a way to show his peers just how much better he is than everyone else! It should have never gotten this far but maybe if his fellow classmates weren’t such unsophisticated oafs they would of realised sooner. So really it is their own faults!

Hugo comes from an interesting but confusing family lineage of doctors and taxidermists. For years he has been the butt of many jokes in class; clearly due to how jealous his peers all are of his superior intellect!

Upon his great grandfather dying Hugo inherits an odd ruby coloured necklace, perhaps hundreds of years old and worth a fortune! While examining the necklace Hugo discovers it’s hidden power; maybe this is why his grandfather was such a successful doctor…?

As this necklace brings the dead to life!

Hugo goes all out and combines his knowledge of taxidermy and surgery to create the ultimate monster who can finally put everyone else in their places!

Been terrible and haven't updated in ages! Been getting on with the illustration!

Here's some thumbnails on my progress so far!

My idea was Hugo to be showing off his monster he has created during a session of "Show and Tell" in class. So I modelled out a classroom in Max to help give me an idea of the composition I wanted.

Thanks! Anime is definitely an influence but it isn't what I am necessarily hoping for as an end result :smile:

You're welcome ^^
Sure, I totally get that, I was little joking (yes it was bad haha) because each new illustration was looking different and that's fun to see that : D

Starting to take shape, liking the composition a lot!

Maybe shift the beast a little more to the right like the original composition so that it isn't so central? Other than that looking gewd!

Great work on the piece! :smile: Recommend you submit it. You can still edit your final submission after submitting. Not recommended you wait until last minute to submit your piece. Power can go out, internet can go out.

Thanks for the tip!

Good work, I love the idea. Bully the bully power revenge fantasy story always good as hell. Character reminds me a little bit of Frau Engel from Wolfenstein.
