Cockatrice Family – Creature Design for Scars of Honor
I had the opportunity to design a full creature lineup for the upcoming MMO Scars of Honor, focusing on the Cockatrice species.
The family is structured into 3 main types:
Broodmother – the dominant alpha, large and imposing
Cockatriels – mature cockatrices that haven't reached alpha status
Snakelings – the unpredictable, juvenile stage of the species
The direction allowed for a mix of avian and reptilian elements, with an emphasis on unsettling shapes, strange anatomy, and subtle grotesque details like tentacles and growths. I aimed to keep the designs cohesive while pushing their visual identity into darker, more primal territory.
Thanks to the team for the solid collaboration, and special thanks to my lead at the time, Tomeu Riera, for the guidance and support throughout the process. https://www.artstation.com/tomeu
