Artist's Comments

A character whose design I based loosely off one of my favorite monster myths. He eats people D: but despite that can be a very friendly guy.

I hope he looks okay. I'm kinda nervous about the anatomy ^^;

done in painter 9.5

Edit: okay... tried fixing a couple things, including the too short legs. Some people have asked which monster he was inspired by too. It's an African ogre called the Sasabonsam. some of the elements I left out, like the second pair of feet and the long hair, but the original is indeed red and unnaturally tall. He sits up in trees and snatches up victims as they go by, then sucks up all their blood. Apparently you could tell which tree he was in because the ground it stood on would be soaked in red. cool, huh?

You have yet again succeeded in creating something that I would want to make myself if I had more talent and creativity.

i love the anatomy :) very fantasy like... and i really love how hes drinking blood and there is scary things about him, but he really does seem like a sweet fellow at heart... :)
:iconsaxgirl1010:
I love how he's just sitting there all casually, leaning back in his chair... SIPPING BLOOD.

I think the anatomy looks fine. His torso seems really long to me, but the way you drew his legs and arms in that very gangly, sinewy style, you can tell he's a tall, skinny character.

It's really cool, though. The colors are great. :) :+fav:

Wow, he's possibly the creepiest thing I've seen in a long while.

And that's a compliment!

Well I think the right hand is longer then the left and the left leg is longer then the right.
Sorry.
