Welcome to the first of four Monster Mondays! Each week I'll be showcasing the concept art, created by Ash Jackson, being used as reference for the new in-game monsters.

Today's Monster Monday Concept is the new Skeleton!

I really like what Ash did with the Skeleton. His armor and clothing are much more tattered looking than the current skeleton. I think it gives him a lot of personality. Exposing his ribcage rather than covering it with armor was also a nice touch.

The arrow in his shoulder pad also gave me the idea to do that sort of thing with the skeletons. Basically show how they died. One might have an axe in his chest. Another might have a sword through it's skull. Could be a fun way to add some variety to the spawns. And yes, an arrow to the knee may not be out of the question! ;)
