La Grand'bête à tête d'homme / La Manticore. Probably last of the character designs researches for now. I'll work mostly on my storyboard from now on 💪 For this character, I thought they could be a strange librarian selling books and questions instead of eating people like in the original tale. #mayvigart #gascony #manticore #folktale #folklore https://instagr.am/p/CaMzfvlsRVm/

Lo Tac (le Tac) Another legendary creature of Gascony Folklore. This creature can transform in any object (a basket, bundle of wood…) or animal (goat, lamb…) and try to be carried on the back of their victim. They'll get heavier and heavier until their victim is too tired, collapses or put the Tac away. Then the Tac will laugh at them and run away. They also can take the form of a horse and once the victim get on their back, the Tac runs to a river and drowns the poor rider (a bit like the Kelpie, Ech Goblin, Cheval Mallet, etc.) #gascony #folklore #mayvigart #foal #creature https://instagr.am/p/CaKb4cOsAOE/

Le Roi des Corbeaux. Character design for my current comic project. This character is inspired by the Gascon tale "Le Roi des Corbeaux" collected by Jean-François Bladé. I'm looking forward to drawing their whole dark starry wardrobe in the comic! ✨👀 #mayvigart #gascony #characterdesign #folklore https://instagr.am/p/CaH6WtjMyEE/

Character design researches for the Grand'bête à tête d'homme (a kind of Manticore). I was thrilled to discover that the Manticore appears in Gascony folklore! Once again I was inspired by the collected tales of Jean-François Bladé. Luckily for Estèbe the harpy, this Manticore don't eat people and prefers to sell books. #mayvigart #gascony #folktale #sketchbook #ink #manticore https://instagr.am/p/CYeHF_JMtIq/

Character design researches for l'Òmi Verd (the green man). He's a kind giant and master of all the flying beings in Gascony folktales. #mayvigart #gascony #folktale #sketchbook #watercolor https://instagr.am/p/CYb495Cs8-R/

Character design researches for the King of Crows. This character is inspired by the Gascon tale "Le Roi des Corbeaux" collected by Jean-François Bladé. My version of the Crow King will be a bit different from the one in the original tale though. #mayvigart #gascony #folktale #sketchbook #ink https://instagr.am/p/CYZRNlJszgR/

Starting 2022 by finishing the creatures drawings I started in October. I worked a lot lasts months and had no time to complete this challenge. It's okay, it was just a matter of time. Here you can see a Ganipote, Manticores (Grand'bête à tête d'homme), l'òmi verd (the green man), the Crow King, a Bécut (the one eyed shepherd) and some water creatures ✨ I will be selling all these drawings, but probably not this month (because I still have a lot to do in my personal and professional life). Take care all and I wish you all the best 💕 #mayvigart #drawing #challenge #painting #creatures https://instagr.am/p/CYOmJSHMHmn/

I thought I wouldn't do a drawing challenge this October but here I am painting tiny legendary creatures 👹🌞🌚 Have some mermaids, harpy, basilics (Lo basèli in gascon), Jean de l'ours (Joan de l'ors), fairies, changeling and werewolf. I will post these drawings every 10 days and expect a sale at the end of the month ✨ Those tiny paintings are made from cardboard and paint scraps. I drew on them with a molotow white marker and copper liquitex ink 🖌 #painting #drawing #challenge #october #creatures #halloween #mayvigart https://instagr.am/p/CU2QNFtsktO/
