Had a fun idea the other day, of a cathedral built on the back of a Strandbeest. Tossed it in an ai as a prompt to get some starting points for a sketch, and low and behold, there must not have been enough Strandbeest images for training, the images were useless.

Which was a blessing in disguise. Having to do some research, merge together some stuff in Gimp, and start some of my own rough sketches in order to brainstorm has been a fun process.

Below is my furthest along wip:

I'm going to finish this sketch,  but I already have a ton of ideas for the next one.

And my end goal is a thought me and my brother came up with while discussing it: a nomadic group of shepherds, living in yurts built on the backs of smaller strandbeests, following their chapel wherever the winds blow over the great plains. When storms come, they lower the sails and stretch them over the legs of the strandbeests as shelter for their sheep. And of course they will have anchors to keep their beests steady in the storm.

I can picture it in my head, will be a sweeping scene. Hope I can do it justice.
