Description First in a series of these beasts, I have a lot more but this is a few of them.
An older sketch from this year that's part of my backlog I never got around to posting.
Decided to throw some colour on it to make it feel more complete.

From Left to right:

Atlas:
A giant of Westwall, bred to immense size over many generations, a mobile fortress of a giant many times heavier and capable of carrying massive burdens

RaptorPlaceholder name)
A large predatory mount ridden by the orcs of the badlands and eastfort, fast, mobile, intelligent and deadly, they are effective at pack tactics with their orc masters.
Some of the elven skirmishes also tame and ride these, but only elves of strong constitution manage to use them effectively.

TOWERFOLK FOR SCALE
6 foot tall height

Rhinox
A great lumbering armoured beast, this beast of burden is used by the orcs as a source of food, and it's hide is sometimes used for light armor worn under plate or on it's own.
They are important to orc economy.
Oruk have been known to ride this beast, during the Oruk's short lived takeover of Fire Mountain many took exodus on the back of freed Rhinox and left the mountain in search of a better land for their people.

Wulipede(Placeholder name)
A useful beast ridden and eaten by dwarves regularly, serves a similar role to the Rhinox but for dwarves, it's thick fur being useful for clothing, and it's plated armor being used for tools.
Although it seems to be mammalian it is more akin to a large beetle.

Stone beetle
A relative of the wulipede, this beetle's outer skeleton is as strong as stone

Thunder Drake(Placeholder name)
This apex predator is a terror to the orcs of eastfort and the men of the dark pines.
Yet some of the most brutal and fearless of orc warlords have been known to ride these monsters


All right lads, which mount you taking?
And also, any suggestions for any of the nameless beasts? I'm open to any and all suggestions don't be shy even if I don't use it they help me brainstorm.
(As like the Tower folk, named by mate888    )
