Brief

Gargoyles are an extinct species of nocturnal creatures, currently believed to have only existed as Gothic cathedral architectural embellishments. These extraordinary beings aren't just statues; they're actual living, breathing creatures. They appear to be extremely intelligent, making them great watchdogs with a sixth instinct for danger. Their ability to blend in with their environment allows them to stealthily monitor any intruder that threatens their hiding places before aggressively attacking them to drive them away or worse. Your drill this week is to create a Gargoyle project in either 2D or 3D. It can be stylised, or photo real. The choice is yours.

Deadline

Submission close Monday September 26 @ 7:00pm CST
