Day 7 - Marbas

So I recognise I missed yesterday's drawing as i was too busy... I will come back to it... it will be a 3d model.

Today's drawing is a very quick sketch for today's prompt which is Marbas... a lion who serves as a president of hell.

I wanted to do this as a CGI piece but only had time for a fine liner drawing. Will hopefully work on this

Day 5 - Witchblade

Its late but managed to sneak in a fine liner drawing for the fifth day of - Sara Pezzini from Witchblade

I am now very inspired to start reading this comic.

I originally wanted to do a 3d piece for this one but I was very busy today. Nonetheless, still really happy with how this fine liner drawing has come out.

DAY 4 - Nure-Onna

The fourth day of and I have done a fine liner drawing of the nure-onna, a creature from Japanese folklore or a yokai. Often portrayed as snake with a woman's head, it is known to emerge from the sea.

My hand was definitely hurting after all this fine liner mark making but happy with the result.

Day 3 - Spring-Heeled Jack

My first watercolour of the challenge. For the third day of , I am portraying Spring-Heeled Jack, a figure within Victorian English folklore, an early example of an urban legend, if you will.

The figure was said to have been seen to leap across roofs in the streets of London and Liverpool at night.

When doing my research, I found he would often be portrayed as either a man in a disguise with a mask and cape or as an outright supernatural being.

When doing my own portrayal, i leaned mainly towards the former as I thought that was interesting. To create his appearance, i researched into Victorian fashion and I also looked into photos I took while at the Venice Festical of people in elaborate costumes with masks.

Its good to pick up the watercolours and I think I captured the atmosphere well although I did rush a bit as the time was getting short.

Day 2 - The Crone

I had a huge amount to do today and also felt a lack of inspiration. That said, I did manage to do this quick fine liner drawing of the Crone from Sleepy Hollow as part of

Hope tomorrow is a better drawing.

Fine liner drawing of a Tengu - a mischievous spirit from Japanese folklore that lives in the mountains

I haven't posted any work on here in a long time as I had taken an extended break from social media so decided to post this fine liner drawing I did of this creature from Japanese mythology.

I am going to try post more regularly again and to post more diverse art that includes my drawings, paintings and 3d modelling.
