Horseman of Famine

The horseman of Famine is a character model I had created for a project. I worked on both the design and character model for this character.
The design itself had been based on a mix of depictions of vampires in folklore and descriptions of the horsemen that has been linked to famine from the Bible.

With this design I wanted to emphasize the hunger that famine brings, with his stomach being a literal mouth that always consumes.
The upside down horse-shoe, signifying bad luck, is supposed to resemble a halo which fits nicely with the owl motif in his mask stemming from the Strix, an own that in ancient Greek myth was told to be a bad omen.
