"A Tale of Momentum & Inertia"


A rocky mountain secluded behind the forest ......


I thought that there was a huge golem beside the rocky mountain.


He seems to lift a rock larger than his body and stack it on top of the mountain.


The texture of the rock and golem is very real and it seems that it can not tell whether it is a photograph or a CG if you see only rocks.


Gorem is relieved briefly after finishing the big work.


However, the large rocks just loaded on the top of the mountain are inclined slowly behind them ... ...


If it keeps going down, it falls down the slope of the mountain ...


It seems I will make a small town in the foot of the mountain Peshanco.


Golem realized that the rock rolled down ... ...


I will chase Oiwa with a tight expression. Because the rock is rolling down at my own risk, it is a sort of expression that says "I must stop it at all costs!"


Golem and Oiwa steadily go down the slope ... ....


Successfully catching up without fail.


I thought that it was short-lived, only the part that the golem grabbed by haste was broken and I can not stop the momentum of Oiwa.



Oiwa gradually approaches the town.


Even a gigantic golem is more than a size, so it seems that no matter what kind of sturdy thing it would be if you stepped on Oiwa.



Golem taking pose aside from "Ikkan!"


I thought whether I should re-exercise and run and chase afterwards, feeling good at legs ......


Jump dynamically.


It is successful to go around the rocky rolling rocks.


Golem and the rocky rocks approaching. Just looking up at the golem and the rock from the forest seems to be about this angle.


You can see the size feeling with such feeling as seen from the side.


And finally a clash. Squeeze your hands carefully ... ...


Hold the Oiwa well.


But I can not stop killing momentum and gradually retreat to the city.



Come up to the place "I can not use it anymore ...!"


The bell at the top of the tower seems to have hit the heel of Golem, it sounds "Gone" but it succeeds in stopping the rocks at the limit. Is there a great cheer being raised in the town ...?


The tower where the heel bumped when it thought that it was successful to save the town unharmed is a bogey.


At that moment, the defense system of the town was activated and the face of the large weapon of the cannon and the bow and the like jumped out from everywhere ... ...


Attack golem.


Golem is also a surprised expression on this.


I was thinking for something for a while ... ...


The rock is transformed into a stuffed look as if he was angry about being persistently attacked from the town.


When I thought what to do, let 's get my hands off the rocks ... ...


The town is Peshanko.




After seeing the place where the town has been for a while ... ...


I walked away as if nothing had happened.


Many artworks of "A Tale of Momentum & Inertia" were published on the official page of HouseSpecial.

The shadow of a golem nestling in the forest.


Golem looks more expressive than I thought.


Image of the golem.


This is created with CG.


It seems that it was hard to imagine with illustration or CG alone, or golem was actually three-dimensionalized with clay or something.


An image of the last scene.

Image of attacking the golem throughout the town.
