Who and what
Kind Description
Creature One enormous ape-like humanoid, brown shaggy fur over arms, chest and legs, lighter tan face, heavy brow ridge, yellow eyes, mouth open roaring with white teeth and fangs, long arms extended out to both sides, one hand gripping a grey rock, standing astride the centre of the glass in front of the cave
Full description

A horizontally oriented painted backglass with a pale blue sky background and a low ridge of green conifer trees across the bottom edge. A colossal brown, shaggy-furred humanoid ape dominates the centre, chest out, roaring with mouth wide open showing white teeth, yellowing fangs and a red tongue, brow furrowed and yellow eyes glaring forward; long heavy arms swing out to both sides, one hand reaching towards a pale grey rock slab on the right. Behind the figure is a broad ochre and tan rock face rendered in vertical striations, with a dark cave mouth opening immediately behind the head. Across the top, the word BIGFOOT is painted in large slanted block capitals, orange-brown with heavy black shading, sitting on the cliff face. Four white rectangular score windows with rounded corners are inset in the art: two across the upper left and upper right, one lower left and one lower right, each with a reel of white digits on a dark background. Black footprint emblems with a red numeral sit above and beside these windows, reading 1, 2, 3 and 4 for the players. A red cursive wordmark with a white drop shadow is painted on the right-hand cliff face, partly over a bright glare spot. The bottom strip is flat mid-green carrying yellow block text at the left and right. The art style is flat, bold, hand-painted and illustrative, with heavy black outlines and a limited, saturated palette.
