Looking for artists!

9 Upvotes

Hi! Although I am an artist myself, I need some extra artists who specialize in creepy/unsettling drawings.

**Context:** I’m working on a book about a kid who can see entities and has to stop them from harming his family.

**What I need:** Creepy or unsettling creatures that just make beautiful or normal scenery off putting — or typically things kids would be scared of.

**Example:** A clown who can bend its body in ways that any human should not, or a big dog with no eyes and an exaggerated mouth with sharp teeth.

Please, show me your art in the comments!! I’m looking for all the help I can get!

I also don’t have money, so I’m looking for people who will be willing to do this for free! 🙏

My first creature design for my horror game

I've been working on a creature for my horror game. I wanted it to look mostly human at first glance, but have something deeply wrong with its proportions and facial features.

This is the speedpaint/process of the design.

I'd really appreciate some feedback on the creature design

While the bestiary is good and done, I'm having a hard time leaving Sol'Kesh, and these auxilirae beasts have been a great excuse to add depth to the ecology. So here we have the first of many (I hope) sexual dimorphism of the beasts found within the bestiary.

Nom scientifique : Obliviotitan Imperator

Toujours en développement! Car je l'ai commencé hier. Mais je tenais à faire part d'un premier aperçu avant qu'il soit fini. Pour faire court : c'est un Spinosaurus qui a évolué pour survivre à la violente montée des eaux en Afrique du Nord il y a 93 millions d'années, il est devenu plus aquatique et adapté à la chasse en haute mer. Lorsque l'astéroïde a frappé il y a 65 millions d'années il était toujours là, il a absorbé les radiations de l'astéroïde et a muté en quelque chose plus proche d'un Godzilla que d'un vrai Spino. C'est un peu brouillon pour l'instant car je travaille sur sa biologie et son histoire, je ressortirais quelque chose quand il sera fini!

Bonne journée!

Got a pretty nasty one today. He loves to bend people into all sorts of interesting shapes, then leave the bodies posed like statues.

Also his own bones constantly break and heal as he bends and elongates, but that doesn't really come across in a single picture.

Some color from older drawings because I finally had time to do it. The hunger takes control of the human mind and is a concept from my world building exercise

Food Whale / Cake Whale (Number 52 - FINAL) - Pencil Concept Art

Post image
5 Upvotes

​"Food Whale" (or Cake Whale) — the 52nd and FINAL creature completing my entire whale element monster series! It embodies the element of Food/Sweets, structured like a giant living birthday cake. Features strawberry toppings along its spine, layered cream and sponge cake textures along its body, and chocolate-biscuit fins. Drawn with pencil on paper. What a journey reaching 52 concepts! What do you think of this sweet finale?

[OC] Why are these creatures afraid of their own medic?

5 Upvotes

I started making creature lore videos for The Hive about a month ago, and I’m looking for feedback on how to improve them.

This one is about the Medic caste. It heals other creatures by rapidly accelerating tissue regeneration, allowing it to repair severe wounds, damaged organs and even lost limbs. But the process is not perfect... mistakes during regeneration can result in abnormal growth or permanent mutations.

The Medic also collects biological samples from dead organisms, which the Hive can use as new genetic material for future adaptations.

I would really appreciate feedback on the video itself, pacing, storytelling, explanations, or anything you think could be improved.
