Allright, seriously now...

I dunno; any way you could replace parts of the elephant with biomechanical parts? Like one leg could be "robotic;" that is, it's made up of some huge, heavy steel pipes and machinery/clockwork. One tusk could be broken off halfway along its length, and the rest could be a mechanical replacement. If you felt especially nutty, you could even replace half of its ribcage/side with some mechanical parts that join into a mechanical leg.

Just throwing out some crazy ideas...

it's funny you should say that - believe it or not, my original plan was to have his back half and half of his face completely mechanical - here's a sketch from a couple of weeks ago - sorry it's so crap, but cts makes it kind of difficult to draw.

Not bad at all! I'll admit, I'm no better a 2d artist; I'm definitely much better at 3d artwork than 2d.

But that aside, that's pretty much what I was picturing! I say go for it ^_^

haha yea i didn't really write that well did i?

i was making a comment that the queen is ancient, and having her ride the elephant, even without modifications, would add an antique touch to it.

(then i added some eddie izzard joke references)
