hyena positivity that focuses on spotted hyenas only is so fake. if you don’t love brown and striped hyenas then get out. if you don’t love aardwolves I can’t even look at you oh my god
oh shit wait you guys know about the aardwolf right?????? right???????
leeeeeetle hyena? eats bugs?
i love love love when artists put a bunch of effort into like human anatomy and facial features and light rendering and drawing fabric folds and shadows and texture and then when they draw a gun they do this
Do you hate drawing firearms? Let me introduce my good friend 3d Warehouse to you! There's a pretty good database of 3d models that you can rotate and play with in real time, no program download required! I've seen all sorts of real world firearms, as well as fictional guns from popular video games and other media
Don't ever be afraid to trace guns--it's not art theft or stealing, it's saving yourself an enormous amount of time for the exact same end result. Additionally, if you're unsure of what firearms to draw, the Internet Movie Firearms Database has a collection of basically all firearms used in any media ever, from anime to film to video games and everything in between
And of course if you can't trace a gun directly then this website is still perfect for getting a reference photo of the exact right gun from the exact right angle!

ELIAS TONGUE THEORY (don't scroll away this isn't weird I swear)
Why does Elias, "I don't have any internal organs," Ainsworth have a tongue?
Tongues are organs. They stimulate your taste. But Elias has no organs, and no brain to interpret those signals. There's a whole bit in season 2 where he talks about how he doesn't experience senses the way other creatures do.
Elias splits his whole face in half to see Chise, and the tongue was nowhere to be seen when that was happening. So it's not an essential part of his being or anything.
It's also not for talking, bc he just opens his mouth and words come out. What.
What purpose does the tongue serve?? i'm talking beyond the ..obvious.. aesthetic appeal stuff.
"oo it's for healing!" there is no WAY that the most convenient healing spell Elias has is in his saliva. Do you know how inconvenient that is? Do you how how PLOT convenient that is??
There's also no way the tongue healing thing is just something he's born with either, because his ability to form relationships isn't a natural one. Why would he have a natural ability to heal others through close contact when his entire being is so deeply rooted in destruction? He looks horrifying in his natural form. He looks insane
On that note.. Why does he even want to eat humans? Why does he crave them? That insinuates that they taste good, which means he has a tongue, but he still doesn't have a brain. Idk
Either
a: Elias does have a brain, but the only stimuli it can sense is taste for some weird reason.
b: He purposefully altered his form to have a tongue, (if this is true, when did he do this?? was it when he met Lindel, Rahab, or Chise?)
c: he just is born with a healing tongue and no other organs for some reason
d: noticed Lindel and Rahab had it and just.. automatically gave himself a tongue , without really thinking about what it does, and uses it primarily as a tool. "ooh, i can use this to apply healing to my allies! brilliant!! and totally not sexually charged at all! Plus, I'll look more human!"
i'm so confused help me
So, sostupid. The more I've thought about it, the more likely the last one seems. He canonically makes disgusting food, so he probably *can't* taste anything, but he just pretends to for the sake of it. There are no taste receptors. There is just a floating tongue inside of a skull, with nothing else inside. What an idiot

After several hours of research effort, I think that Elias could be a Leshen.
Hi anon! Well now I've fallen into the leshen/leshy rabbit hole along with you! I don't watch the Witcher and I don't know that much about Slavic folklore, so I'd never heard of this legend before. I can see from Witcher fan art that there is a resemblance between Elias and the Leshen, though older images I found of Leshy don't include the skull head and antlers. And Elias has horns, not antlers.
The description of the Leshy from Wikipedia, as a deity that rules over the forest and the hunt, includes many qualities that fit Elias:
The Leshy is masculine and humanoid in shape, is able to assume any likeness and can change in size and height. In some accounts, Leshy is described as having a wife and children. He is known by some to have a propensity to lead travelers astray and abduct children, which would lead some to believe he is an evil entity. He is, however, also known to have a more neutral disposition towards humans, dependent on the attitudes and behaviours of an individual person, or local population, towards the forest. Leshy could take children who were cursed by their relatives (in particular, parents) away to the forest people. Some would therefore describe him as more of a temperamental being, like a fairy.
I can see it.

Everyone is welcome to share their theories about Elias. What kind of creature is he, where did he come from, why is he trying so hard to act human?
