I should use this more

[ericmhe]

Not been in the best of moods lately. Feel like quitting trying to do art a lot more deeply than I usually do, so it's been harder to be stubborn than usual.

I remember when Reptilian was fairly new and it just sounded like they were saying "Young Gary" to me, which sure seemed like a lame monster name.

'Two Turtles and a Crab'

Random creatures, two pretty basic kaiju body plans and one strange case of fusing a stegosaurus with a crab for some reason.

Found a really old comic I never finished and thought I'd upload it. To save time I just colored the sketch I had rather than try to fix the lines, especially that "Frieren pose" panel - funny, also on a pointy eared character.

I get endgame fatigue sometimes with big ornate final dungeons, I used Legend of Zelda here, but the worst I ever felt it was with Baten Kaitos Origins. I did mix and match Zelda stuff a bit, trying to make it more general commentary than complaining about a specific game.

The shadow makes absolutely no sense but without it that panel seemed potentially unclear to me so I just kind of shoehorned it in.

Marker Megalon

[ericmhe]

Assorted doodles of some strange creatures. There's a few I think might work in some kind of quirky pixel art game as enemies... no real plans for most of them though.

[ericmhe]

The traditional version of a picture I've already uploaded. This one ended up being massively multi-media. Markers, pens, colored pencils, charcoal and some oil pastels in the sky.

[ericmhe]

Mostly colored pencil but there's some marker there. Just more coloring old things I have kept around while I can't do much.

[ericmhe]

My computer died some time back and in my current situation I have no income so I have no idea when I can go back to more usual art stuff... right now I'm trying to take pictures of drawings and it's not really going the best quite frankly.

I wish I had some hope of getting money via Ko-fi or Gofundme or something, but I don't see that happening.

It can be a bit of a battle sometimes, I'd really like to finish up my series of original creatures but I'd also like to draw other things too. I'd also like to do more experimenting and studies and stuff so I finally got to making myself try something a bit different. I don't know if it really works though.

Birthday presents for the niece and nephew who have their birthdays only days apart. Nephew says his needs some blood put his parents say only ghost blood allowed.

[ericmhe]

I always figured I'd have some monsters that feel somewhat plausible to make as a suit and I haven't done it previously so I thought I best get to it. There's also the matter of trying to make something that looks or feels a little bit more like something from Ultraman, though I admit that's likely the kaiju-heavy franchise I'm least familiar with. I'm not sure where they'll go just yet, but I don't have a lot of spots left in my world building so it probably won't take too long to sort out.

A Couple Little Guys

Just some random design doodles, don't know for sure where I might stick them so for now they're just a couple little monster guys to put out there.

Royal Flycatcher (genus Onychorhynchus)

This bird is being properly held in the photographers grip and is not being antagonized into doing this threat display. Flycatcher are well known in the banding world for being difficult to photograph, as they love to be dramatic about literally anything. It's most likely this video was the last thing that happened to this bird before being released.

(I'm not affiliated with the banding station that captured this bird, just a bird bander myself and want to reassure people the bird is indeed fine)

[naamahdarling]

Pretty effective defense display given that if I saw a bird do that I would definitely fucking LEAVE. What kind of Pan's Labyrinth shit is that?!

hey what have dinosaurs been up to lately, I hope it isn't weird

[ericmhe]

Meteorite fell in the middle east somewhere, and then its semi-cloning capacity led it to swarming the region and even beyond. Not the most physically daunting by any means, but very annoying to try to finish off, it had the obvious job of disrupting oil supply and trade through nearby bodies of water.

This guy's been kind of fun to write in the past, he gets to be a sort of recurring villain in a way. In the story I wrote the first appearance coming from a clone generating from a foot that was blasted off in battle then frozen in storage for study. Of course thawing happens, the foot busts out, and a big chase goes on for a while as it's growing into a more fully fledged creature.
