Description Contest entry for 's contest of her character, Sid/Ridac.

He's such an awesome character, and I had a lot of fun with this. I livestreamed this nearly from start to finish as well. Thanks to everyone who showed up!

Didn't end up placing, but at least working on this and the livestream was fun. <:

Fascinating, eerie character! The claw-like tail (?) and the swamp locale make me think of an ahuizotl (swamp-dwelling monster from Aztec mythology that would dwell in swamps and snare the unwary with an extra claw/hand on its tail), except that your rendition looks like it's a far more "natural" (if alien!) creature.

Right!? Forget the old "floating log" approach! Alligators got nothing on this!

Who knows, he's a hunter, so maybe he might even prey on the alligators o:

It was such an honor and a pleasure to see you work on this. You really did the character justice and it turned out so beautiful! Well done my friend well done.

I am deeply, madly in love with the background, I must say.

Kasaurus In reply to Sharkfu [2012-01-26 23:10:57 +0000 UTC]

Awesome The character design was pretty complicated, so I went over it many times trying to get it as close as I could, so I'm glad to hear that. It was really fun though! He's an amazing character.
Thank you! <3

Kasaurus In reply to Dragonqueen101 [2012-01-26 23:12:10 +0000 UTC]

Yeah xD I guess he can't hunt in those conditions with it being so bright, so he decided to laze around instead

I can't take credit for the actual design of the creature though, since it's someone else's character. <:

Ok^^. But I was talking about the art of it. So the compliment is still credited to you ^^ Just how you made the colors be apart of it sometimes that's hard to do
