I can imagine that happening. I remember reading something similar about Tyrion and Teclis. They made these two cool models. And once they had them, they sort of felt they needed to do something extra with them. Which is how their whole lore sort of was thought of.
Somewhere I’ve got The Gothic and the Eldritch, the big black Jez Goodwin sketch collection. The concepts are there, the guy we know as ‘Teclis’ is labelled ‘Elf Mage’ I think. I also think JG pretty much created the Skaven as a Warhammer race from scratch.

I'm sure I read somewhere in a WD that Squigs came about that way: Suddenly a sculptor just showed up with them, sculpted at home if memory serves.
The earliest I remember Squigs is from the three Ork books released towards the end of 1st edition 40K, roughly 1990? "Squiggly Beasts" sticks in the memory.
