Other concepts and more
I will list here once more of my concepts is made. Some of these concepts may also look familiar but that is because I am also "Rexx" whom has posted some hero concepts on the EU and US side forums for Heroes of the Storm.
This Richard concept was originally started the 20.06.2017.
20.06.2017: Richard Ashendale Complete Concept Created. I regret nothing. Yes this is based of Richard from the LFG Comic, duh. I should mention that so people don't go mental and proclaim that I "stole" anything.
21.06.2017: Made some texture and grammatical corrections.
