Description
My take on Spring-Heeled Jack; a legendary figure from the Victorian era, known to attack people with incredible agility. Able to bounce over walls and scale rooftops.Many of the 19th century artistic depictions of him represent him as decidedly devilish-looking and umm... A bit camp, too.
I gave him a cane with the head of a Jackrabbit on it. (hurrr)
Happy Bonfire Night!

Even if he did all those things and if he's long gone, if I saw him I wouldn't be surprised if I just flat out fell in love with him

This is so wonderful!
All those lights, the cane, the purple figure and the way he stands on that chimney... just great!
Also the perspective is stunning, you feel like you could jump into that scene...

Thank you so much!
Careful if you try to jump in. It's quite high up - and that fellow there makes parkour look far too easy.

Haha, I learn so much about strange UK terrors from you! This is great. I looked up the original, and see what you mean. He's aΒ flamboyant terror.

Oooh interesting interpretation of the figure. I like how he arches his back, delicately stands on the chimney, and looks down for a potential next victim. Crazy pretty cityscape too. The purple goes so marvelously with the yellow-orange. Love it!

Interesting. Love the city below. I saw a sci-fi show that explained that Spring Heeled Jack was actually a temporally displaced velociraptor.

Thank you!
Haha, hmmm... i question this hypothesis! By all accounts, he at least wore a cloak. Maybe it was just feathers...

Well' there was a person with a long cloak hunting it that had been observed near it's victims.

Wow this is brilliant! I love the purples and oranges and the brilliant perspective. His pose is great too, very theatrical almostΒ

Sweet perspective, pose, and contrast between the yellow and violet!
This whole piece is so visually pleasing-its phenomenal!
(that Jackrabbit cane is awesome.)

Thank you!
I'm so glad it seems to have turned out a success. It did take a while.
I've certainly seen fox, badger and deer head canes before. I'm sure hare or rabbit ones must exist somewhere, too!
