Description Alrighty, this one was super fun to do I tell ya. I love love horror/monster/creepy designs so I was excited to draw this bab, and I'm honestly quite happy with how they came out. 
This bab is part of the Creature-Exchange for Sick-Victorian , I hope this is what you wanted <3 If you'd like something tweaked, please don't hesitate to let me know  


1 - What parts of your prompt were written well and easy to understand? Was there anything the writer of the prompt could improve on or include next time they create a prompt?'
The prompt was easy to understand and written well, it was very straighforward and clear what was wanted but with enough freedom to really have a bit of fun with it. The request was simple and well outlined so I was really able to enjoy the creation of this one. 

2 - Please explain how you interpreted the prompt to create your design. Which features did you use? Did you stick to the chosen palette or make changes to it? Does the design you created have any special abilities or quirks?
Well with the base inspiration of a mythical Kelpie, along with some of my favouite themes (creepy, scary, monster etc), the base had to obviously be equine but with an aquatic spin, hense the fins. I incorperated the 'undead' prompt with the skull-like head, thin bony body and the dark greens representative of decay. The design was kept simple with no markedly unnatural markings or colours. (Though I can't tell you how hard it was to resist putting pretty deep sea biolights on it, I was worried they'd be considered too bright or unnatural for what you were looking for). Of course I had to go with the blank white eyes and the multiple legs as suggested (they were fun!).

Really cool interpretation! With all the legs, it could almost bring to mind the image of a crayfish, which is appropriate because either way I find them scary. XD The coloring and dark background also gives it the perfect eerie/dangerous vibe you were going for. I don't usually like creepy things but this looked really unique to me and I felt compelled to say something.

Thanks very much! 
Hahaha yes, I thought the same too, we have a couple of crayfish ourselves so I enjoyed the resemblance and it fit the aquatic theme ^u^
Awww I so appreciate the time you've taken to comment on my work, thanks so much <3
