Avatara Highborn concepts for Para Bellum Wargames' Conquest.
At first the Avatara were supposed to be heavily armoured cloned "super troopers" for the Spires. The first couple of iterations were along those lines. After feedback, I had to move away from the "clone-in-heavy-armour" in the design and to make them more elegant(the revised version is an exploration of that). At this point, I wondered: and what if the Avatara are just a shell-a doll that is remotely controlled? This led to the final concept where the doll aspect is pronounced with features such as ball joints, excessive decoration-and hairstyles- and of course, extremely exaggerated proportions.
