Infection stages

Until now most of our stuff we had to do with the infection stages of the animals was very rough, so we needed some more polished illustrations, I took one of the sketchy drawings and refined it and added variations at the stages of infection.

The illustration depicts a deer as it would be seen in the 'safe' areas in the game where it would be completely harmless and unaffected by the fungal infection (Stage 0) varying all the way down to the most extreme example of the infection where the animal would be highly hostile and powerful. As the infection gets more severe the fungal infection spreads causing the effects of hair loss in the affected areas of the skin, excessive bone growth and visible fungal growth in the most extreme areas.

I've posted most of my reference for the fungal growth already, but I used another influence for the final stage of a tufted deer which have strange fangs, I felt that it would add to the violent image of the final stage of the infection.
