<p>Another concept art featuring, this time features my upcoming book's titular main antagonists--Amorphs. Without spoiling anything, I draw inspiration monsters from various anime and science fiction media, such as the Grimm from RWBY, the Necromorphs from Dead Space, The Flood from Halo, Typhons from Prey and Shoggoths from At the Mountains of Madness, when designing the monsters. If any of you have questions about these creatures, let me know in the comment section below, but I'm not gonna spoil the book for you.</p> <p>Note: Originally, there are tags, but since it causes my upload speed to slow down, I decide not to. Sorry.</p>

<p>This is one of my concept art sketches from my upcoming young adult science fantasy novel, Dinosaurs vs Monsters, and to avoid spoilers, the only one I'm showing you are four main characters in the story.</p> <p>Chloe Emmet is a halfbreed Animal-Ear cat who has difficulties with her team due to her social anxiety disorder but is selfless and loyal leader of Team CLOI, and because she is raised by a lovely family in a cabin, she loves everything nature and not afraid of even the most dangerous of wildlife.</p> <p>Lara Howard is a hairess of InPrim (International Primal Crystal Technologies) with her limbs and eyes surgically replaced with prosthetics only for her Mage preperation, and is a former friend of Chloe as both are dinosaur enthusiasts until her harsh criticism and entitled behavior broke their friendship apart.&nbsp;</p> <p>Olivia Garcia is a quiet antisocial Anthro shark who was an orphan before she became a member of the Anthro/Animal-Ear civil rights organization--The Created--but she rejected and keep her idenity a secret after they commited horrible actions against humans.&nbsp;</p> <p>Indigo Fukuzawa is a hyperactive, excitable, quirky and outgoing human girl who gossips with her friends and refuses to accept help due to her overconfidence of her super strength when fighting Amorphs, and if a former criminal of a mafia--The Company--which got her parents killed.</p> <p>Update: I had to change a bit of distinguishing features by smoothing their breast areas and adding exoskeleton that helps with the muscle fiber of the Nanosuit after I've done my research on real-life body armor that even female wearers can also wear male body armor easily compare to impractical fictional armor. Contrary to popular belief, even real knight armor is as light as modern-day armor, even the wearer still gives speed and mobility, and the real reason why they never be worn again is because of introduction firearms that can puncture knight armor and modern armor is designed to stop most firearms.</p>
