Description More art for the project. Blatantly Mushishi/Miyazaki-Film inspired stuff.

I somehow stumbled onto the wikipedia page for the Axolotl salamander a few days ago and thought it would be cool to base a creature off one. Albeit a terrestrial one with no eyes and a tree on its back . Took much less time than Jewel Dragon due to lack of intrictate patterns. The little things around it are... spirits, I suppose.

Has very shiny skin.

(The name isn't a real word, to my knowledge. Just kind of took the name of the Axolotl and merged it with the with Nahuatl, the language the original name is from.)

I'm going to go ahead and let people take the sprite if they wish to use it for an avatar (a bit bit on DeviantArt, but some other sites will take it) or ... I don't know. RPG Maker monster anyone? Just give me some credit why don't you. Link back to the page, and we'll all be happy

Aww, it's so cute. :3 The whole thing is great, but I find the tree particularly impressive with all the little leafy details. Very nice work!

They really are. And they're plenty abundant in captivity. (unfortunately not so much in the wild )
