Bolthead, one of the Gnomes gang. I imagine these guys would be the size of a small Rat. I thought that giving them a rat like tail and eyes would make them more creepy!

Creature/character design sculpt from 2018. Some additional sculpting was done by Clare Price on this guy to help me hit a client deadline. Music is a mix from Elia Azarzar - A Ritual for the Dying.

I tend not to do fan art generally (nothing against it) but i got so immersed into the world of Spice Frontier that I was inspired to design a creature that could fit in this universe stylistically.

The main reference for the character was Richard Harris. Other actors were studied as options. He was great at playing intense, brooding characters. Also his face has such character.
