I have a small personal project which I intend to keep up with as time goes, and it's basically this: a creature alphabet comprised of mythical or medieval fantasy creatures, all with names started with runes. For the first one I've picked the Manticore, because it's rad as fuck.
The final illustration. Since it's so big and detailed, I opted to not go full render on it since it could blow the lineart details, and also make it easier for a possible t-shirt design.
Some detail.
Initial rough sketch on my sketchbook.
Now all pencilled up in an a2 sized paper.

If you dig this, please also visit my brand new website, for which I made this illustration as it's header.
