Dragon's Rise The Forgotten Realm
The face was a combination of two actresses. I liked the resemblances of a delicate elf from The Lord of the Rings, and the evilness from Maleficent's character. The result is a perfect mix for the design.
The legs were primarily based on the front legs of the Manti; the back connection was a combination of ant and human skeleton anatomy.
Regarding the body, I aimed to create the sensation of an exoskeleton. My main inspiration was to inspect and give it an organic look and feel, similar to the Prometheus.
I created a simple master material to easily use on other surfaces.
"For a century, the Queen had been living in the shadow of King Arthur, serving only as a consul. However, as the years passed, she developed a deep hunger for power that consumed her. She began to seek out sources of dark and powerful magic that would grant her the capacity to control the entire army of undeath. Eventually, she succeeded in her quest and gained the ability to manipulate and direct the undead forces at her command.
With her newfound power, the Queen's ambitions grew even stronger, and she set about creating chaos and destruction wherever she went. Her army of undead surged across the land, leaving destruction and death in their wake. The Queen revelled in the power and control she now possessed, and seemed to have no intention of stopping her campaign of terror anytime soon.
As the years have passed, the Queen's reign of terror has continued unabated. The people of the land live in fear of her and her army of undead, never knowing when they might be attacked or their loved ones might be taken by the Queen's minions. It's unclear how much longer the Queen will continue to cause suffering and destruction, but one thing is certain - her thirst for power shows no signs of abating anytime soon."
