New Creature Design

Started to draw this the other night and finished it today as a warm up to working on some character designs I'm working on tonight. I think it was pretty successful and I had a lot of fun drawing it. This was one of those drawings that started out as a couple of circles on the page with no idea where it was going or what I was trying to draw. When I'm drawing monsters I like to treat it more as a sculpture that forms out of mark making on the page. Put something down, take a little away, repeat. I also believe that you will get your most interesting designs like this instead of having a pre-conceived idea of what the monster should look like.
