NeverEnding Story Redesign // Morla

I had fun redesigning the NeverEnding Story characters. I tried a more
mature, dark and gritty approach. My main reference was mostly the first
film and the wikipedia page (I never read the book).
Morla the wise, less cartoony than the one in the movie.

I've always tried to imagine what Morla looked like. The book doesn't describe his whole body. What I especially like about your concept here are the holes in his shell. It is a nice detail and fits perfectly. If Morla had sat in the swamp for thousands of years, a shell with holes would make an excellent foundation for a microecosystem. Soil would collect and the holes would allow more room for roots to grow.
Very nice work!
