>>35042050I actually really like Magmortar, and there are two key concepts that I'd keep. First, obviously, is the mortar hands. Secondly is the head bumps - Magby has six, Magmar two and Magmortar one.
My main issue with Magmortar is how rotund it is, and how it cartoonifies both Magmar's avian and reptilian traits. I think my rough sketch shows how I'd rather it go - thinner, more avian.
