Description

#1 The Vesper Bat,

"Then, out of one of the old Cathedral towers, a swarm of black bats emerged, screeching in the night. The sound of their cacophonous voices made my blood run cold. But then I saw that this cloud was led, by another creature, emerging as the moon set and the vesper bells tolled. A great winged beast, fanged and bearing down on me like a dark angel. We clashed for what seemed like an eternity, but the sudden light from my torch drove it away. I must never move at night without one again. ”

This is the first of my series of Bestiary drawings, part of this month’s commission theme. The full concept is an explorer’s drawings during his adventures, alla Castlevania or even Metroid. They’re all going to be done in black and white colored pencil, on this toned tan paper.

Naturally I chose myself as the first image, but unlike the greek and dinosaur samples, I actually finished this before announcing it. The official chart will be up shortly. This is obviously a more monster-y version of my batsona, Vespero. It feels good to do a pure drawing again, with no extra steps or revisions.
