rough design for Sleep (im new n still working out the lore n my headcanons so pls be nice :3)
design explained :
- the sheep eyes are a reference to the lyrics from Rain (mouth of the wolf/eyes of the lamb)
- the pattern and shape on the mandibles (not super clear in this sketch) mirrors the pattern on Vessel's mask, the idea being that part of Sleep's consumption of Vessel is to eat away at his identity(?)
- the teeth on the mandibles and everywhere else morph from molar-like to needle-like teeth
- hands are meant to represent, well, reaching and wanting, grasping at everything around you
- Sleep's body is essentially made of morphing shadow, making it able to envelop and overwhelm everything around it.
let me know what u think:3 i'm planning to use this design for illustrations in a zine project (that i am hoping to actually . make )
