Love the dynamic (and difficult!) pose. I also really like the very dark shading of one of its front arms closest to the viewer. You could contine on that shading a bit more, getting some really dark areas at its torso and part of its neck possibly to make the drawing "pop" even more.

Thank you! I love twisted dynamic poses but only so often do I succeed at their representation.
And hmm. I see what you mean. Will see if I can grab a hold of the original and try it out!

Wow this is awesome. It really shows the movement of the creature.
I'm just curious...in mythology aren't the Rakshasas usually depicted as fierce and fanged humanoids? I know they are also shapeshifters and illusionists but I've never seen anything like this drawing...it really caught my eye!Ā

Thank ye! Glad it looks that way ^^
And yes, you are correct. In Hindu mythology practically everything has a humanoid form haha. It's a sort of interchangeable term for demon so I went ahead xD

If you're referring to Avatar, then no. I've had six limbed creatures sketched out in art books way before Avatar came out ^^

Holy crap o3o That's a freaking awesome design, and the detail you put in with the pencil is amazing C: I guess my only one concern is the length of the middle legs: the left one seems shorter than the right, but that could be the angle messing with me. XDĀ
Anyways, great job!Ā

Thank you so much!
And hmm. I see what you mean about the legs. I am sorta measuring it irl and it seems alright. Maybe the angle is awkward?
Thank you again! I appreciate you commenting ^^

Maybe. I was trying to imagine them by themselves, without the body, but maybe the body is hiding a bit of length X3Ā
And it's no problem at all! ^W^
