Pointy armoured snout and chin with horns on the lower jar at the side, in other words her head is a pointy weapon with barbs. There are 4 shark like teeth protrounding from her mouths upper jar in a way that with her mouth closed it still shows.
She has an undercut, 4 ears pointy and her head-"mounted" tail-tentacles are running down her thick and muscular forward bent neck. the rest of the less pronounced lines are halfdone and aren't  the final shape of her angled torso and arms, shoulders and from the viewers PoV upper left arm in this case

Digital art: Four bad reconstructions of animals rendered as cartoons. From left to right, top to bottom: A screamy pterodactyl that is sort of like a mouse with giant eyes and stick legs. It has rows of razor-sharp teeth and a vibrant yellow mouth. There is a drawing of the Lion of Gripsholm Castle, a famously bad taxidermy created by someone with a pelt, a dream, and zero anatomical knowledge or reference of what lions look like. The resulting beast has large chonky teeth and an absurd tongue, as well as gray soulless eyes that look to one side. Finally there is a skeletal reconstruction of the Magdeburg Unicorn, side by side with a fleshed-out construction featuring its tail as a slug and fancy green hair.

The rules. #comics #monster #books

From my new book “Pebble and Wren” available now! https://hallbeck.com/links/

[A little girl, Wren, is talking to a small monster, Pebble, sitting on her bed]

Wren. Okay Pebble, I want to set a few rules. No dirty feet, no bugs, and no farting in my room.
Pebble. Oh, uh… okay. 

Wren. I have two closets, but I think I’d prefer that you mainly stick to under the bed.
Pebble. Right, no problem.

Wren. Don’t overdo it. I think getting scared is fun, but I still need to get a good night’s sleep. So maybe go easy on me at first.

Wren. But you still have to be scary or what’s the point?
Pebble. Dang, I was hoping that part would be optional.

Time for today's #OldEnglish #WordOfTheDay and a bit of #Storytelling / #Folklore to go with it.

Bróga [ ᛒᚱᚩᚷᚪ ]: 1. monster, trembling, fear; 2. monstrum, tremor, terror, horror

Bróga in Old English is a feeling; a deep terror, a trembling fear. An internal moster that brings a blind horror.

In more modern folklore, there is a monster called The Broga (or Brooga) -- it is said to be attracted to grief, especially the grief that accompanies the untimely loss of a persons one true love.

The creature, will follow the grieving victim and then take the form of their lost love. The Broga will use their time to make the victim feel fear and terror through waking and sleeping hours. The Broga will make the victim start to fear for their own life by making them believe the loss of their lover is their fault and the spectre is there for revenge.

The Broga will slowly take over its victim's life as they spiral into madness and psychosis; once the monster has attached itself to its victim, there is nothing that can be done. Only death will bring relief and the monster will move onto its next victim.

#furry #FurryArt #fursona #MastoArt #art #feral #anthro #creature #monster #OriginalCharacter #wolpertinger #jackalope #rabbit

a reference drawing of a fursona in three forms: anthro, feral, fairytale. it's a wolpertinger, a rabbit with gold antlers and wings. the rest of their coat is beige with brown and ginger spots, the eyes are green with yellow inside the pupils, the non-feral versions have sharp black claws. 

the anthro version has a woven desaturated green shirt that is mostly holes, and stirrup leggings that also have holes on them. they have long brown hair. they have a glowing moth friend.

the feral version is just a wolpertinger!

the fairytale version is kind of sphynx-like (or a bit griffin-like) in body shape? it's quadrupedal but the front paws are actually hands. the head is rabbit-like but with long hair that have twigs, leaves, berries tangled in it. their antlers and wings are bigger compared to the other forms. they have four moth friends with them!

áttorsceaða [ ᚪᛏᛏᚩᚱᛋᚳᛖᚪᚪ ]: venom-enemy / A poisonous destroyer; a venomous dragon

áttor (áttres/áttru): poison / venom

sceaða: scathe / harm / cause injury /a spiritual enemy / a fiend

Pronunciation: https://files-thefolklore-cafe.ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com/attachments/attorsceatha.m4a

The great áttorsceaða -- a deadly and venom-destroyer/enemy. A monster, like a dragon, who spreads poison where-ever it goes. This creation is a great wyrm (worm) or serpent. Deadly and fearsome; it lives in those dark and lonely places, marshes and swamps and destroys all living things.

Streetart. Chalk drawing of a little Monster with a Paperbag over his head, on the sidewalk.

It’s more pronounced in real life, but every time I’m at this intersection I see the #monster in the bushes. The greenery is a fuzzy head, the red lights are eyes, and the arrow sign is a mouth. You see it?

my phone is still broken so no camera, but at the moment I'm making weird bendy rag dolls with aluminum wire, painter's tape, recycled fabric, embroidery thread, and posing them in asanas all over the living room. trying to figure out what to do with them.

they are fun to make and I can't figure out if I'm done.

Instead of a picture of that, here's a monster I water-penciled into one of my little notebooks about a year ago.

#art #monster #notebook #sketchbook #waterpencil #sculpturethoughts

I water-penciled a mountain-shaped hairy monster with big eyes and teeth, a short arm with a giant hand, and tufty ears. The monster is exasperated, as if yet another stupid thing happened. Just can't even monster today, no energy for it.

next to the monster are the words  "I feel like drawing monsters, the world is full of them" painted kind of sloppy.

Yet another sorry soul lands from bird-space. Hi #introductions!

I'm Jennifer Reuter, seeking enthusiasts, readers and creators in the #paranormalromance, #horror, #monster and #urbanfantasy space!

I do #illustration, #comics and #conceptart with grit, hope baring sharp teeth, and some flavour of #tragedy.
....
Whoah, so much room for text?!
Anyway. Here's my newsletter:

Illustration of two figures floating in space together; a black feminine human and a rocky demon. The former holds the latter's chin horns gently as they both smile and stare closely into each other's eyes. The colours are both pastel and jarring.
Illustration of a blue alien man, Cad Bane, sitting at a bar, dressed in a sharp turtleneck and grey suit and pants and his big hat. He stares at you with his red eyes, unimpressed, while cleaning his teeth with a pick.
Illustration of four adult band musicians from Melbourne, Australia, hanging out at a kids' playground during a grapefruit coloured evening, playing various instruments and having a good time. But a spooky figure with a long mane and big, glowing, sad eyes watches from the gum trees in the back...
Illustration of a toothy, spiky, bird-like monster and short Japanese, tough woman with burn scars on her face, staring, or glaring, at each other with intensity. The monster is grinning, the woman is not.

A third and final monster design to share with you today...

This is a plant creature that I drew a few years back, as an evolution for a character made by another person. The project that I made it for (a Pokémon fangame) is long dead , so maybe I'll revisit it. I quite like its distracted expression and fluffy hands and tail. I have it filed under "Plantcopter" which I guess is as good of a name as any :da_giggle:

Drawing made in markers of a plant creature with huge leaves coming out of its head, resembling a helicopter. It looks fluffy.

Hi! I'm coming back today with more old drawings of monsters that I may, or may not, turn into pixel-art assets in the future.

This is Beebear (Avejoso in Spanish), a mix between a bee and a teddy bear. I have plenty of drawings of it, including one I made for a fake Pokémon card years ago.

Unfortunately it's also a forest creature and it didn't make the cut for my first asset pack. So many creatures, so little time :artsweats:

[ #Monster #Creature #Fakemon #Pokemon #MastoArt #TeddyBear ]

Drawing made in markers of a scene with several cute creatures, that resemble a mix between a teddy bear and a bee, gathering nectar from flowers.
Pencil drawing in soft pastel colors of a cute, cuddly creature that resembles a mix between a teddy bear and a bee. It has rounded years and tiny blue wings.

Let's do a Werewolf Wednesday today with another of my characters from my Horror High series (it’s a companion to my bat boi). Just a were-dude always getting into scrapes, bit chill, always smells of wet dog, really needs to get some new clothes.

#illustration #linocut #printmaker #werewolfwednesday #werewolf #horrorart #characterdesign #wallart #queerart #monster #horror

A linocut of a werewolf character. They have two earrings in their big pointy left ear, a big tooth grin, and seem to waving at someone off to the right. Wearing a tatty old white tshirt with rips and a skull design with wavy confused eyes. Has a plaster on their right arm with the left hand holding onto a black backpack with a hear and pentagram on.
