DD3992 HONOURS PROJECT #9: Mood Boards for Wyvern and Weapons

Right, now I've shown my work, it's time to show off the mood board. Ordinarily I'd include these with the designs I've done, but since there's three of them and they're all quite large, I decided it would be best to dedicate an entire post to all of them instead. Below are the mood boards for the Wyvern, Excalibur and the 4 Weapon Types.
