Spyro Against the Almighty Ape Army

Here's a cool little poster I did featuring Spyro and the Ape Army's most fearsome members. Essentially the big bads of the first two games in the trilogy, I did a little tribute to them, including the "The terror of the skies"! Also in prep for a Spyro project of mine!

Concept Art Doodling + bonus meme slipped under the door of Gaul’s office for the TEN Bad End AU.

Things aren’t completely terrible for Spyro and Cynder, just mostly. They get absorbed into a friend gang of rebellious teen Apes living at the Well of Souls who are sick of having their lives consumed in a forever war and want to escape.

I’m still developing these guys, but I already like them a lot! Art is from March 2020.

Handwriting from first one says:

It’s really interesting how in TLOS, the Apes have traditional sea boats powered by oars and use Dreadwings for air travel, while the Skavengers, who are much less numerous and much less centralized from what I understand, have a massive technological leg up with their airboats. They can also travel by air using Skurvywings. I dunno, it’s just interesting to look at the little details in TLOS.  

Actually, I might be wrong about the Skavengers being less centralized than the Apes, because all the Skavengers we see report to Skabb’s ship when the gladitorial games are going on, meaning at least they must have stayed close enough to the ships to attend the games at the time. They also all dress mostly the same. Whereas, the Apes are spread all over different regions and adapted to those regions in TLOS with their clothing. Even though Gaul is still their supreme commander and they all answer to him, there are local commanders who are in charge of all the troops in each region.
