Sketchbook and drawings

To add to my level creation, I have been asked to create a detailed sketchbook and design certain objects and styles for my level.
I have already started a few drawings, but the one I am most proud of is this gargoyle like horse head that will be placed about each column in the main hall.

I got the design from a screenshot from lord of the rings the two towers. There are 14 columns in total (7 on each side), drawing this figure head was challenging but simple. The main task was trying to figure out how I would model this in 3DS Max.
