Arctic War Beast: Grug

My submission for the recent COW #191 over on Conceptart.org. I wish I was able to spend more time on this, I had to pack for a road-trip and that cut my time short. Even with the intense competition for the "Arctic Beast" round I still got 1 vote!! It sounds like if I had been able to put in more time that a couple of other people would have voted for mine as well, which tickles me pink!

"The Grug started out as a simple carnivorous beast of the planet Mur. When the natives of the planet began feuding over the scarce resources, they looked for animals that could give them the upper hand in battle. The Grug if raised from birth with a particular clan will view only those people as part of it's pack, honing in on the opposite clan in battle. They are very effective in battle but males will often get distracted battling other males instead of trying to wipe out the other clan. New comers to a clan should keep their distance from these beasts... or risk being killed."
