and bring me lots of death and doom?

Can't I just stick with real-live, non-death-shroud owls?

"AND THEN REGURGITATE YOU IN CONVENIENTLY-SIZED LUMPS OF ECTOPLASMIC HAIR AND BONES."

Oh man oh man, thank you! That really means a lot coming from you actually, I adore the hell out of your sketches.

SO YEAH THANKS FHFH <3

;-; Seriously thanks man.

I had a lot of fun designing this guy, although the premise was pretty simple. "Well... I like owls... and I like ghosts. .... HEEEEEEEY. 8D"

TY x 1000000000<3

8D I love the design. x3 Forgive me for being in a massive Miyazaki mood, but it reminds me of No-Face and that makes me giggle. (as well, it reminds me of some traditional Japanese shenanigans)

:3 Are these just sketches or do they hold a role for something?

Hey, all the time is a good time to be in a Miyazaki mood. I love No Face and while I wasn't actively thinking of him when I made these guys, I definitely take a lot of inspiration from him in general.

I'm not sure, actually. I designed them with Silent Hill in mind but I have yet to decide if any monsters of my own design besides Decay will show up in "Blackbirds". If I don't use them there, though, I'll probably find something else to do with them because I like how they came out too much to just let 'em languish.

OMG OWLS. This is like... if No Face and a ghost owl had a BABY. A GLORIOUS baby. And I really like the shading

We actually have a family of owls living in a tree right outside my bedroom window the hooting annoys my parents but I love it so :>

Is this a concept for a possible character (or maybe one I am unaware of xD) or just fun timez?

phantastus In reply to Lynseca [2010-03-24 17:53:18 +0000 UTC]

GLORIOUS SPIRIT OWL BABIES.

Thanks, man! And oh man I love owls so much, I wish I had some near my house. ... Well, only if they were the hooting kind, I don't think I'd want the 'dying-woman-scream' kind.

I was thinking about SH monsters and kind of came up with these-- I don't actually know what (or if) I'll use them for yet. But I like how the design came out so I'll probably find SOME use for them.

Hmmmmm... yeeesss... the 'dying-woman-scream' kind DO sound unpleasant, possibly *raises eyebrow and rubs chin thoughtfully*

YES. THEY ARE COOL.

I did not sleep.

AHahahahaha ohhhhhh owlsss luckily the ones outside my window just kinda hoot softly... or idk xD MAYBE I'm just a really strong sleeper (I have technically slept through both a chainsaw and a heavy drill right outside my window soooo... yea)

Owls I have yet to hear the screechy kind XD

This is just like that one part in Fantasia where there was this big block-thing that lumbered up to the viewer in time to some off-sounding cello strings. It genuinely scared me, but I kept watching it over and over as a kid.

Now it's ingrained into my mind like some kind of odd self-mind-rape, and I'm still deeply disturbed by it.

Awesome job. Now the christmas tree will look like a disembodied owl ghost out of the corner of my eye.

I think I just scared myself a little.

phantastus In reply to Syren-scrabdemon [2010-03-24 17:46:53 +0000 UTC]

XD Whoa I don't remember that part of Fantasia. Which part was that?

And hahaha awww I'm sorry I scared you!

THEY'RE FRIENDLY OWL GHOSTS. DOES THAT MAKE IT BETTER?

Syren-scrabdemon In reply to phantastus [2010-03-24 19:48:34 +0000 UTC]

Found it! [link]

8:00 is when the creepy part starts. Apparently the block was moving away, but still...

FRIENDLY YOU SAY? O:

phantastus In reply to Syren-scrabdemon [2010-03-25 03:39:18 +0000 UTC]

XD! Oh man, I totally forgot about that. I can see why that would be pretty scary to a kid though, I had a lot of similarly innocuous but somehow-eerie things that I fixated on and was terrified of when I was little.

VERY FRIENDLY.

THEY JUST WANT TO BE LOVED.

EVERYONE ENJOYS OWLS.

EVEN HELL OWLS.

I adore the way you did the little heart-shaped faces of the Barn owls. They transition well and unnaturally into the shroud and it's just awesome. Something about a misplaced owl head just freaks me the fuck out and I love it.

OWLS FOR EVERYBODY.

Thanks, man! Barn owls are like... how could something be so adorable and yet so eerie at the same time? IDK.
