Fully modeled and rendered in Modo. Main concept is taken from oriental mystical animal known as Kirin or Quilin, realized in mechanical, decorative approach. They are divine and peaceful creatures and appear in areas ruled by a wise and benevolent people. While original concept describes Kirin in a body of a dragon-snake or a lion (in Chinese Mythology), I went in other direction depicting it in the body of a horse/deer. Kirin naturally resides in the skies, followed by the wind that embraces his body that I have designed in some form of 'strange steam-punk' mechanical elements.
