I liked the idea of using a snake character (but one of the rules was that we had to make our creature humanoid) so I kept with a Pharaoh/Egyptian idea and began to research the Egyptian Gods. I thought about making one of my own with a snake head (as far as I know there isn't one with a snake's head, only a crocodile).
So I came up with Thu'ban! Originally he was going to have a huge hood (as shown above) to look really intimidating and fierce. However my lecturers and I discussed that maybe it would be better to make it smaller. I tried a few initial colour ideas (Top left being colours taken from the Egyptian gods, top right being stereotypical snake colours and bottom being the colours of an Egyptian cobra).
Settling on the colour scheme I then proceeded to do some more research into hood shapes and environment art. I also drew up a model sheet so I could get modelling. And such was the outcome:
I also modelled Egyptian temple ruins to go alongside my character.
