Artist's Comments

I decided to redesign the Temple Guardian, because I don't draw him often, and its a cool monster to draw. Couldn't think of a BG, so im stuck with paper white. xD

Original found here= [link]

Bio:
Temple Guardians are ancient golems developed by the ancient races of Zealot. Standing from 20 to 30 feet tall, they are very intimidating creatures, although they are motionless unless activated by a threat. In order to give life to this stone mass, a crystal has to be infused with large amounts of magic inside of the monster's torso.

Temple Guardians are immune to earth-based attacks, but water does have an effect on their bodies. Their tail whips and bites are attacks powerful enough to topple small buildings, and they can leap into the air to slam down with enough force to create a mini-earthquake. Weighing in at a few tons provides an advantage, despite the strain prolonged battle has on their joints. Moss and jungle vines tend to grow on them, since they only move when their land is threatened by a powerful opponent.

Cool! I like how it has moss on it's back, and the face reminds me of the stone jaguar from "The Road To El Dorado" which is a good movie in my opinion.

I was thinking about the Aztec and Mayan statue designs when I first developed it, and I wanted to give it a dragon-type influence. But the movie "The Road To El Dorado" helped influence how he attacks. :D
