Gorgonite Concepts

Whilst making the film a number of Gorgonites were designed who didn't make the final cut of the film. They range from different designs to different colors and even how they would walk from the final result

Very early designs

 * Archer: unlike the feline character we know and love today archer (only known head concept) early concept art showed he had a more mangled monster face with a blood shot eye and small to the right side hair he appears to have heavy scars on his face the one noticeable one what looks like stitch holes while he has a missing left eye which might have been given to troglokhan when he was rebuilt

List of Gorgonite Concepts

 * Green Flatchoo: The main difference from Flatchoo's appearance in the final film is that he was green and a part of the Gorgonites. In the film, Flatchoo was red and part of the Belch Brigade instead of having anything to do with the Gorgonites.
 * Plant Gorgonite: If this Gorgonite had a name, it hasn't been revealed but it looks like a plant that wears armor and holds a shield and axe and has fly traps growing off of it.
 * Ogre Gorgonite: This Gorgonite also doesn't have a name. His weapons are a scythe made of bone which has a blade grafted onto it and a flag
 * Scar Puss: Two version of Scar Puss were designed, the first is a creature with a chin full of spikes and has a lot of scars all over him. He holds an odd looking axe and his clothes are gloves that look like there where made of straps and a loincloth with a metal plate on it. The second design looks like he was stitched back together. He is more of an ogre but instead of legs that work he has big arms using them for walking. His weapon is a club that is hidden in his back.
 * Eyeball Head: This Gorgonite is an eyeball with a mouth it's main way of grabbing things is using optic nerves to hold a cross bow and it wears boots and a manacle with a chain on it. It may have been an early design for Ocula.
 * warto: although no concept art has been shown of this character he is mentioned in the small soldiers scraped book he is described as being like he was stung by thousand bees

Slamfist
Before settling on the final color scheme for Slamfist the designers gave a few different designs a try.
 * One design had green skin and purple clothes. The only thing that remained the same for his final design was his strapping being brown.
 * Another design was very different with blue skin and very light blue spots. His clothes are cheetah print in this design.
 * Another design was much closer to the final design but the main difference was that his clothes are brown instead of dark blue with a small white patch on it running from the bottom of his chin to the bottom of his clothes. His strapping color was either white, grey or black instead of brown like the final design.
