Description

To begin with, the Jormungar pictured here is indeed not Mudwiggle! *gasp* I mean, he is white and the featured worm is blue. Plus, the scene would have become too cluttered if Mudwiggle had slithered his worminess into this piece o' art.

The concept of this specific piece altered frequently from what was originally pictured in my crazy lady brain. One delightful evening, I decided to watch the recent Dune movie. Towards the end, there was someone surfing on one of the monstrous worms. A unique image of Phe surfing on a giant Jormungar immediately came to mind. Only one potential problem, there is no awesome gigantic Jormungar mount in the World of Warcraft. *gasp* The dreadful shame!!! It was naturally time to develop one myself. However, before I realized it, my inspired creation had taken on a life of its own and became a vicious gladiator worm mount.

So, the concept changed to having Phe ride into heroic battle on a vicious wormy steed! Then a test pose was done of the armor-clad Jormungar. Not solely did the pose, but the camera positioning that turned out too awesome for its own good. Like so, idea two was scrapped, and what you observe became the final vision.

Woefully, this piece does not show off the Jormungar mount in all its true glory! To remedy that, I'm making my first ever animated turntable, woot!!

In all honesty, what was created here took way longer than it should have. It was a month in total to carefully prepare all the assets and satisfactorily complete the finished piece...
