Description
A creature that waited deep in the shadows, in a nightmare i had.She was evil and aimed to hurt me. To rend and tear my flesh with teeth and talons; but she only knew where i was through sound. Only when i stumbled and made a noise did she lurch and twist toward me, body and limbs moving with quick, stuttering and ungainly movement.
she was creeeeeeeeeeepy.
so i drew her
there are some really obvious influences that i recognised after i remembered her. things i'd seen that worked into my dreams. but she's as close to the thing from my dreams as i could get her, so any inspiration or influence really is completely subconcious.

Somehow your mind appears to have modged the Nurses from Silent Hill, with the Devouring Man from Pan's Labrinth.
Scary dreams suck, always I dream I am being held underwater and drowned by weird prehistoric undiscovered sea creatures. Its horrible. And still I buy these weird pets that resemble the animals in my dreams.
Compulsion's a funny old thing.

hehe, yep. Undoubtedly another minor influence. It moved like that. I saw the film over the xmas hols so some of it must have got burried in my good ol' subconcious.
Thanks for coming by, and for the fave and watch too.

Yeah she is creepy - I think you should put that first sketch up that you did in uni - the one where her head is bent back. That is EVEN creepier.

Very spooky creature. Your discription also adds to creepy factor of the character. Excellent coloring aswell.

hehe, ironically, the cell shading is just my quick way of getting out of spending any time properly colouring it.
Thanks anyway. and for the fave too
I wanted to add make sure ppl got more of an idea of the creepiness through the description. Cus she freaked me out, lol. And the picture alone didnt quite do it justice.

-_- midna.
Yeah, i knew that would come up. Midna's headdress is based on mayan and aztec design, which im told ffeatures heavily throughout the game. My influence came in part from aztec art too. Wether ppl are going to believe it or not, its simple coincidence.
