Procothylia - Creature Design

Procothylias are jungle creatures that use pheromones at night to lure prey which makes them prized mounts for hunting. At night, the pheromones activate and the animals take on bright colors, with their slime-like tails and manes growing larger.
This was done during Jeanne Plounevez's class, the goal was to create a fantasy creature that was friendly and could be used as a mount. Thank you Jeanne for the amazing class and feedback !
