Description For Mother's day I wanted to draw more Monster Moms, unfortunately Mother's day fell on my final exam week so I only finished one....a month later.

meet Euripides Grimm...Ripper s mother. Super Model extraordinaire, She's frequently touring the netherworld with Daddy Grimm and that is the main reason why Ripper lives with her Uncle. Ripper loves her mother, but to say that they bump heads would be the understatement of the century. Her mother harbors a lot of jealousy for Ripper because she got chosen to be the next grim reaper of the family and not herself. So because of this she feels the need to push Ripper into things to make her more like herself or knock her down a peg. She feels this constant need to be "hip" and compete with her daughter.She has good intentions for Ripper but the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

She is Mirg 's older sister. Any jealousy she harbors towards Ripper is the direct result of perpetually being forced to live in his shadow. Despite Her being a super model and their other brother being an astrophysicist. they could not compete with their sibling who was the Grim Reaper, their mother always praised Mirg the most, held him with the highest regard. This made her bitter and she takes it at great personal offense that her daughter would be next on the branch to get the title.

All that aside they do love each other and she encourages Ripper in her skating, grim reaper studies and most of her pursuits, she's happily married and shes always excited to visit Ripper and see what her daughter has been up too in her absence.

it's probably for the best Ripper only sees her a few times a year...anymore than that would be just too much for her to put up with.

Euripides influences includes but is not limited too. 1985 , Deb Dobkins , Julie winters mom from the Maxx , the Un favorite.

Rippers Father.

I love their complicated relationship and her design! It must have been hard for Euri being overshadowed and then feeling a need to compete with Ripper... but I find it great that she encourages Ripper in her other interests and such.

I also like her design, not identical and not completely different from her daughter!

Can she shapeshift too? Or is it a trait for Grim Reapers only? (I bet that would be cool in the modeling world!)

thank you babes! I had fun with them!

she was bitter about it for a long time, she still does. It can't be easy to have your brother be the grim reaper.

EuripidesΒ  can not shape shift, it's a reaper only trait that you gain upon reaping your first human soul.Β  it would be very useful to her!!! if she could shape shift she would have never needed to get breast implants! lol.

Hum, she must have worked hard to get where she is now then. I hope one day she'll see it

Oh, and how does Mirg feel about this? I think Ripper's not the only one who has it a little hard when Euripides comes to visit...Β 

Keep up the good work!

Mirg is kinda used to it by this point, I'm sure he rolls his eyes every time she whips out "mother always liked you best"

I apologise for being so late with this comment! But I digress. I really love this a lot! Ripper's mother is really hot. ;D You did very well on her design, and I see where Ripper gets her looks from. I love their sense of fashion and Ripper's checkered pants. Excellent work done!

oh gosh, I love Ripper's expression in this. She's trying so hard to put on a good face for the picture but it just radiates how much she'd rather be a million miles away. Even her body language is closed off, which seem unlike Ripper normally but does loads to illustrate just how awkward she feels at that moment.
