While original Golett and Golurk are dubious enough with their origin, they are usually interpreted as Roman golems. For my Orbonian versions, I wanted to evoke Ancient Greek marble statues, and while original forms are usually looked upon like ancient warriors, I went for the route of heroes of ancient myth. With their ability to fly and transform into a cannon Golurk is also reminiscent to giant robots of the mecha genre, so I added some elements of that, like the columns on the back of the third stage that act like rocket boosters.
