War Beast: Platypus by Firedrake
Part 1 of a 2 piece commission…the request was australian animals from opposing armies!
For each army I created an insignia to place on the machinery and also as a stencil in the background.
Who will win the people’s ovation and fame forever?
The other piece:
Watercolour, ink and pastel on canvas.

Hilarious! I think the platypus will win though! :)
You think? Maybe I’ll put that question up for discussion :)

These are so cool. The insignia stencil came out great :-)
Thanks! I’m happy with them. They were a little full on at first and then I dirtied up the background so they faded back.

that is pretty funny!
Cheers :)

go platypus! (the poison spurs are his ultimate concealed weapon for close quarter fighting). love these! : D
Never mind bayonets, he has poison spurs! They really are the most bizarre animals.
– Firedrake
he doesn’t look convinced that riding a bomb is a good idea
That’s why he’s strapped in tightly!
