Mecha Leopard Jólakötturinn

This was for my first year Christmas event where the task was to take a Christmas myth or legend and draw them out, giving them a new twist. As a start, I took the Yule Cat 'Jólakötturinn', and then proceeded to turn it into a machine. My main sources of inspiration range from my obsession with tanks, to the distinctive 'Panzerhund' from the game series 'Wolfenstein'. The body is based on a leopard (the big cat, and if you want, you could say the tank, but there wasn't any one single tank that I took inspiration from).
