Day Six: Seaweed Lascinth
Gotta admit, I kinda cheated on this one. It's been sitting on my hard drive partially done for some months now, but not so far along that a few touch ups would finish it. Only the back part of the body close to the stem-tail was more or less done, the rest needed the final lineart and colors. Beyond completing something that should have been done for a while, I kinda burned myself out a little yesterday and the day before and needed a little bit of a break.
A Magi Nation piece this time, a dream creature from Orothe and Weave. This is just fannish concept work for the rest of the body, since the card shows only its' head and neck. The idea is that much of its' body is buried or half-buried, with its' feet and the end of its' tail acting like the holdfast of most seaweeds (which fascinatingly enough, all belong to a certain group of algae) and literally root the lascinth in place.
Re-offering requests and prompts. If there's something you want to see drawn, let me know. No promises, but I'm afraid of running out of ideas before the month is up and this'll be a help to me. Though hopefully I do get bit enough that I can follow through on a request, and feel free to get as detailed as you want.
