There were a few monsters last year that just weren’t quite right, I couldn’t put my finger on it but I just didn’t like them as much as some of the others… monster #17 is one of those monsters… I liked the face, but felt like I just threw the rest of the body together to meet a deadline, ahem. Forgetting that Inktober is about having fun and being nice (which includes yourself, you know). So I decided to spend some time trying to ‘fix’ monster #17… I think after some trial and error I came to a character that I like. 🙂
As you can see, I spent so much time on the lower half of the body on the first try (upper right corner) that the paper had been erased so much I had to get a new color… I went online and looked for triangular shaped characters and found something with shoes and pants, and tried to alter that into this character (click to enlarge)…
This post is just a quick note, I have something I’ve been putting off for far too long that has now become a giant gorilla on my back and must be dealt with and then perhaps I can think again.
Until next time…
