Description

I thought of this concept immediately after I posted a topic in newgrounds. This monster was inspired by almost every wraith that came to mind. The grim reaper, death, and Doom's pinky demon, and I don't know if that thingy from Ben 10 counts that fazes though walls counts.

My goal was really to create a creatur based off the idealogy and mythes of wraiths and cloaked beings of the such without the use of a humanoid form. (I don't like humans that much)


As you can see. It has a skeleton and a scythe arm and the hood has fangs... cause it's its face.
The wraith's thin skin and dark fur simulates the texture of a cloak. This creature is found lurking around graveyards scavenging for a corpse to devour or to slay nearby wanderers that lurk the grounds at night.

As for drawing it. I just took a mechanical pencil and went crazy. I figured that if I made up my own creature then poses for it would be easier to make since it isn't really something as real as a human and doesn't abide by their rules. You can call it an excuse.

That's a great sketch. I think its claws are quite... devious. The head's resemblance to a scythe is also a really cool allusion. ^_^
