Sam talks to the Snallygaster (sketch to final)
Let me know what you think!
My favorite hoodie got a hole at the pocket, so I embroidered it over.

Mutants of Cherry Creek (pt 2)
Some MORE mutated critters from my YA lovecraftian horror comic set in 90s New England.
Mutagenic ooze is seeping into the town of Cherry Creek and mutating normal New England wildlife into terrifying monsters. The Cherry Creek Middle School Paranormal Investigation Club sets out to discover, catalogue, and tame all of the mutated cryptids and hopefully find the source of the toxic ooze before it permanently infects everything (and everyone) in town.
Northern Short Tailed Shrew — one of only a few venomous mammals
Brown and Black Bears - walk on two legs, climb trees, intelligent
Eastern Crayfish - present in the fossil record for at least 300 million years Eastern
Moose - huge but stealthy
Eastern Newt (Red Eft) — can secrete a strong smelling chemical from glands in its skin
At first, the animals just seem weird, strange, a little “off”. Over time, exposure to the ooze causes these creatures to get bigger, meaner, and much more dangerous. (all the beginning stage creatures shown here are newly mutated, their final stages are after only a few weeks of exposure)
I also love folklore and cryptids and I really love the idea of this club of dorky middle school cryptid hunters assigning names like “bigfoot”, “mothman”, and “hodag” to these monsters so can try and contextualize something they don’t really understand. Soon the club realizes these aren’t fun isolated critters but symptoms much larger impending ecological disaster!
I picture it like pokemon evolution, going from a cute water turtle to a kaiju which is a lot for a ten year old to handle.
Which is your favorite? What cryptid would you wanna see? What animal should I “Cryptify” next? lmk what you think!
Hi all, just wanted to show my newest piece. Oc belongs to @wampyrclown (on instagram), I loved the design, so I drew it. Meat is so fun to draw tbh, I really like how this turned out :]
Once upon a time (last week), I watched (consumed with eyeballs) an anime (brain-pulverising symbolism spectacle) called Revolutionary Girl Utena…
