Description Mary had a little lamb
Whose fleece was white as snow.
And everywhere that Mary went,
The lamb was sure to go.

"Tragedy": from Classical Greek τραγῳδία, contracted from trag(o)-aoidiā = "goat song", which comes from tragos = "he-goat" and aeidein = "to sing" (cf. "ode").

A while back, I'd been having a conversation with a friend and the subject turned to Creepypastas and similar things, which led to me creating a sketch that became this lovely abomination. It has yet to be given an official name or story. And yes, it also has teeth for fingernails.

So is it real? Or not?

Ooh, nice! Reminds me of Kingdom Death: Monster's general handy-monster vibe plus its 'Screaming Antelope' enemy, which is cool.

Affording the figures? Impressive!

I've played the game digitally (Steam's Tabletop Simulator has it) and wasn't too impressed, but reading through the bestiary is on my to-do list. Such a cool bunch of designs!

Yay more nightmares! 
But seriously, I couldn't imagine making an anatomy chart for this thing...

An anatomy chart (or at least an attempt at one) would be interesting to see...but I don't think it'd really obey any sort of natural laws, anatomically speaking.

It doesnt have to follow natural laws if you dont want it too. Just as long as it makes sense to you.
And I mean lobsters exist... and their insides are all kinds of messed up.

That is absolutely gorgeous! It's imaginative, detailed, scary and Lovecraftian (I love HP Lovecraft). I could be crude enough to say it could be one of Shub-Niggurath's "thousand young" (Lovecraft called this god 'the black goat of the woods with a thousand young) but I'll go ahead and say it could be the result of mad priests experimenting with eldritch magics not meant for mankind. In either case it's absolutely fantastic!

I've only read some of Lovecraft's work thus far (but I have every intention of reading more), and I do think that influence kind of found its way into this picture a bit. It's fun to draw such things, I think. ^_^ One can really play with the features.

And thank you!

Ohhhh this has a similar feel to a favorite piece of mine. I really love the design of the creature, and this theme in general <3 Well done!
