They give off a melancholy feeling... Or at least, the bottom centaur-esque thing is (I can't read what it says). Nice job. Bravi.

This page is my favorite of the 3. I love the earthy tones that you've used, the others seemed too vibrant. The leprechaun is my favorite

yep, the nuckelavee's breath is what destroys the crops, he has no skin, and gets angry when celtic villagers cook kelp, or sea-weed.

I did a Dev search on Nuckelavee and only SIX came up (and yours is the best!)

Woah -that guy at the bottom (sorry cant read your writing) just captures my entire attention span. He is one of the creepiest things I've seen in a while. The veins *shudder* and the limp head... Make an amazing character though -is he a real 'creature' or did you make him up yourself?

The leprechaun looks like a mischeiveous trickster - what happened to his other shoe? That woodsprite reminds me of something but I cant place what it is - man what a bulbous head! (I think it might be a creature off the Lilo and Sitch series... I think). For some reason the pixie, to me, looks ditzy, although I cant place a reason why and really she shouldnt -I guess I'm just weird like that.

Yeah, the horse dude is just playing with my mind still... Creeping me out!

Hehehe! Yeah, the guy at the bottom is definitely the creepy type. He's the Scottish sea-demon the Nuckelavee, and is considered more horrible than the devil himself by some Scotts. At night he appears to be a rider on horseback stranded out at sea and has lured many well-meaning men to a watery grave. Also the breath of the corpse-like human body in its back is thought to be the cause of famine or draught.

The Leprechaun can be a bit tricky, sure, but he's mostly just a business class guy with a big sense of humor. Leprechaun means "the One Shoe Maker", and they can be found by listening to the tapping of a cobbler's hammer in a grassy field. They are supposed to make only a single shoe at a time, thus the monopedal footwear.

The Woodsprite I heavily based around a sentient acorn, thus the bulbousness of the head.

The Pixie is a Pixie.

The One Shoe Maker? Truly? I never knew that and I doubt a lot of people do. Wow, got something to shove up a certain someone at school's nose when I go tomorrow *rubs hands together* bweeheheheeee!

Awww, those poor well-meaning men! Dont like that creepy Nuckelavee at all! But he is an awesome character, not something I've ever really seen before (I think maybe once... but that may be my imagination trying to trick me again damnit).

Not much to say about the Pixie? Nah me neither

the pixie is so sweet and whimsical, and the wood sprite is oddly cute.
