Illustration Friday: Monster


Sorry, but I think the topic has changed to Spring as I was posting to the Illustration Friday site, this was done for the previous topic. I was trying to get this finished before the topic changed and was in a hurry and didn't notice. This is the first Illustration Friday I've taken part in. I was running a bit late because I was working on some typical monster stuff for the illo and then realised I wanted to push myself a little and not do a typical monster (as much fun as that may have been). I figured that the scariest monsters are usually the ones that you can't see and this is what I came up with instead.

Lovely stuff, Faz.

Nice job expressing fear in this poor soul. Don't worry about your timing...the important thing is that you pushed yourself to overcome doing a cliche monster. Hope to see more of your work on Illustration Friday!

Is the monster going to "spring" out at him?!!!

I keed I keed. Okay, I'll stop.

Awesome illo. You've really pulled off terror in this kid's eyes. Your colors are killer as well.

Now get crackin' on that spring drawing Faz, I wanna see your next piece!

Do you know what means 'Faz" in portuguese? Means "do". so, in english, "you do", in portuguese , "VocĂȘ faz".
Faz you know how to do.
Congratulations.

I agree, the truly frightening monsters are not seen, or only seen as shawdows of something monstrous, your illustration really makes that point, beautiful work!
