My favorite Rust Monster. Circa 1970s #toy#chinasaur plastic figure which served as the inspiration for the D&D monster. I’d like to snag more of these someday.
Circa 1970s #chinasaur#toy plastic figure made in Hong Kong (possibly, there’s no indicator of origin, but it is in the same style as the others). #Troglodyte inspiry for D&D.
This #watercolor entry, released 7th of November, 2011, abandons the notion of using toys as models. I don't think I even penciled it, and I think it shows (though there was a prior pencil sketch attempted). I still think it's cute, though.
So for D is for Displacer Beast, I had a little assistance from Mickelson, B., “Ecology of the Displacer Beast”, Dragon Magazine #109, TSR, 1986.
