Grab a Gobul!

Deep within the Flooded Forest, a giant lurks in the water. A giant beast capable of walking on land, or diving deep into the depths of the swamps and rivers, a Gobul has been discovered by a shining knight venturing too far all alone...

The creature attacks, and the under-prepared son of Adam finds his path cut short.

Sorry, I wanted to show a knight getting munched.
This here's Gobul, a leviathan type monster from the game series Monster Hunter. As an avid gamer, albeit not as much as some, I often find inspiration in the visual aspects of the games I play. Having always liked fish myself, when I encountered this beastie first time, I was immediately struck by it. Though I failed to capture the Gobul in all of its glory, I tried to exhibit on most of his features.
As seen in the pictures above, he's got his signature lantern, which I foolishly made from memory, with which he uses to stun his prey, flashing a light so bright you'll see stars!



Here's another feature I was sure to add. In game, one of the goals in fighting the monsters is to carve various parts of the creatures ( usually when it's been defeated) to craft weapons and armor. In some instances, the monster's features may be damaged in battle, and carved while the creature is still fighting, in particular the tails, this one, of course is articulated and easily sever-able!

There you have it, now go grab yourself a Gobul, happy hunting!
