MORE MONSTERS COMPLETED, THE END OF THE ART CYCLE IS NIGH

This beasty, which I did myself using Poser and DeluxePaint IV in just under 45 minutes, is the GhostHound. I always wanted these creatures to be guarding the Black Lich's lair instead of Xombi Rats and now I've got them. I plan to sprinkle them liberally thoughout any dungeons with a touch of evil/undead influence.

I animated the creature with seven frames and it looks terrific. In fact, the Poser-enhanced monsters have been kind of making the traditional 2D critters look bad. I don't care - there was some inconsistency in Crusaders of the Dark Savant, too ... and it did not hurt the game one bit. The important thing is - they are finally getting done.

Putting the new monsters into their appropriate slots throughout the game is very, very rewarding.
