Number 23. Monsters Return. This One Isn't As Exciting Or As Full Of Research As The Previous Few. Folklore
Number 23. Monsters return. This one isn't as exciting or as full of research as the previous few. Folklore and mythology's really my dig, and I can and have written huge old papers on the subject.
The prompt today was vampire. I basically just wanted to make a lady vampire that wasn't turned into an objectified sexpot, and who was also kind of like a boyish ladykiller. There you go. Chapstick lesbian Dracula.

Weirdo is celebrating and so am I. Thank you, people who have decided this blog is worth their time.
(Weirdo Comics will be returning later this year.)
Day 20. Today's prompt was Southeast Asian mythology. This one is a bit of a stretch, and as far as I know and can find, it doesn't directly correspond to any established mythology. Allow me to explain myself.
One of my mother's dear friends is from the Philippines. Now, she told the story once of 'black water', water with a malicious spirit, that purposefully drowns people. It can appear as whirlpools and waterspouts, or as perfectly still black pools and lagoons. This friend believes very really and truly in this idea of 'black water', and has been known to avoid any and all water phenomena associated with it. I can't find a specific term for this. I've tried. If someone else has heard of it, please tell me, because I find it really interesting.
All inks all the time.
Hey, I took this picture of this pretty lady!
Taken by one of my very best friends on the trip up to Portland. :D myousa
Day 15. I think this is the halfway point? Anyhow, this is a bird monster. Specifically, it’s a gender-neutral harpy, because abusive parasites who barge into your home and destroy your life needn’t be female by default.
I accidentally took design cues from Yuka Ota’s maw creatures, which I didn’t notice until it was too late. She does really cool designs and work that I love, though, so have a look at her stuff sometime.
The next one. I think this is the 9th? I think so. Anyhow, today was dragon. Here is a man. A dragon man. Actually just a dragon? Not sure. Could even be a dragon woman. I am moderately well pleased with this one.
Ink, brown paper, some acrylic paint.
