Embolado

Taking inspiration and as protest against my country’s (Spain) abuse of bulls in their yearly festivities I’ve wanted to make a series of tauren based on these and instead empower them with whatever they’ve suffered through.

The Toro Embolado is setting flames to the bull’s horns and having him rampage through the streets or in an arena as participants antagonize the animal further by making sport of touching the animal or pulling its tail without getting horned as an act of bravado. Bulls are often injured by either burns or sometimes breaking their own necks as they blinding try to escape the flames and hitting a wall.

For this Shaman, I’ve made his horns fire and his body molten, and covers himself in enhanced copper to highlight his body further, DARING you to grab him by the horns – and live.
