We're down to the last few re-uploads here, folks! After this it will be 100% new content!

Inspired by by some of the folks I watch here on DeviantART (~atomicfiction, *booker and =Deeni - who all do great texture/monster work themselves), I thought it would be fun to create a kind of "field guide" to all the monsters I've made up over the years.
other menageries: monster menagerie 2 | monster menagerie 3 | monster menagerie 4 | monster menagerie 5 | monster menagerie 6

I think this image is pretty self-explanatory... from the top:
Nkytk | Woman King - the bastard 16th child of chaos. He grows infinitely in size and speaks only in music and song.
The gentleman and lady Aaish'ya | Woman King and Existential Cafe - My take on the traditional unicorn mythology. The fourteen Aaish'ya are creatures who exist in and are made of pure chaos. They live in a misty grey forest, where they walk upon the skin of water and spend their days exchanging pleasantries and horrible threats.
The Lord of the Lands | Lord of the Lands - The surviving remnant of a time before the Gods of the Nation were brought down to earth. Greedy, manipulative and scheming, it is said the neck of the Lord of the Lands can extend long enough to wrap clear around the earth.
A Harpy | Muse's Daughter - Jealous, gossiping winged devils, harpies hunt in darkness and shadow and pull apart souls for sport.

I love all your monsters, they sort of feel alive to me because they are not like every other monster out of every other story, and your images as well as descriptions are always very fascinating and intriguing and imaginative. *gush*
THESE ARE NO EXCEPTION. I am especially fond of the harpy! that face, so endearing. and Nkytk's face, too.

Thank you thank you so much! :heart: I really try to make my monsters feel like my own creations and not just use pre-existing beasts (and even when I design a harpy or a manticore I try to make the look my own, y'know?). I'm glad it shows! (:
