Blemmyae



The Blemmyae.

This is another one of my favourite monster type creatures of all time. He is wearing swim trunks for decency. They are said to live south of Egypt, and may or may not be cannibals?

Mystery Panther.

So, of course panthers are real, right? But people report seeing these things everywhere. Especially in places where there have never been panthers, like the upper midwest of America and eastern Canada.

Most of the time, photos and videos of these mystery panthers are just a black cat walking in some tall grass. MYSTERY PANTHERS.

(So not actually a monster, then.)



Well what do you know. Just now I found this: (link) Maybe they are not so crazily rare after all.

couple things.

But for now, here are some character designs for the newest DAC challenge, as well as a Chupacabra. Because why hadn't I drawn a chupacabra until now? Sheez. There is a backlog of unscanned monsters on their way!

(The challenge was to create designs based on some shapes, which I used to design the heads of these prom animals.)

The Doghead!


I guess the doghead is less of a cryptid, but it's still a monster type thing. So it counts. The medieval church deemed them 'human' since they wore clothes, and even sent missionaries to find their secret dog-head villages.

Since it was common knowledge that dogheads were totally, totally real, they were blamed for all kinds of shenanigans.

...Getting a tiny bit backlogged with finishing/scanning all these monsters, so a jumbo catch-up post is coming up soon. (I will recolour this doodle.)

Jedi Showdown.



Another entry for the DAC group! The challenge was to design either a Jedi or Sith, then design an opposite character on the other side.

the cactus cat.

The Cactus Cat of the American Southwest! Unlike most other monsters, the cactus cat is a drunk.
