Re-designs W.I.P.

As I've been working through the roster of MINIONS I've updated their appearance to suit as their character has been developing. 
CROAXE is a perfect example not only has he had a cosmetic redesign I've gone as far as to rename him AQUAT-AXE. 
CROAXE


AQUAT-AXE's colour scheme is reminiscent of a poisonous frog

ARMOLD 
BALL & BEAD

CRAX

DEX

DRAKE THE DUCK KNIGHT



ERTZ THE CRAFTING MINION



FURN 
GRRR!

HEINZ

MINION



MISTER REYES

ORBIS

PINCH
POT-SHOT

RAID

SIR NEIGM

SKRATCH

TORO



VENTZ

VULP
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Some of the NPC's and enemies are slowly being developed along the way - 

BITAN-VENGIR - THE NIGHT FLIER
A vampiric leech who uses a hypnotic amulet to subdue his prey. 

BURNARD THE FIRERITE
BURNARD is the village leader of a tribe of flammable insects called FIRERITES who have been enslaved by the Dark Lord.

Play Through Video

I've made a brief play through video. 


I'll upload any new progress and improvements in the next few days.

The Unusual Suspects

Okay. 
Here are my little creations. All in a neat line. 













They each have an Idle animation for the diorama. Toro alone has been given more animations as he is the playable character in the level.

Teaser shots of the completed diorama

(I've been meaning to post these all week I've only just got around to it)
A few shots of the Minions diorama - 





I need to add some movement to the palm trees. They look a bit unnatural being completely static.



I apologise for the awful video quality but it's the best I can do right now. 
I was just testing out the movement of my chosen Minion - Toro.

I was tempted to make the environment appear cartoon shaded but I have decided it looks pretty good as it is so I can scratch that off the list right now.
