THE TROLL MOTHER
Here is Metus, contemplating eating the clearly rude and failure of a parasitic primate mammal who has been rude enough to DEMAND him to stop taking small offerings from her village.
How rude…
Gift for Tasha as she is keen and always happy to know of my progress with my story and my drawings. Thanks for being so lovely to me and appreciating my art!
This honestly started as being rather silly drawings in warm up to a big colour scale birthday presents for Fran (HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETHEART) and my Grandmother (LOTS OF LOVE).
In our darkest moments it is better to be brave
Look at these dummies. I just had an itch to draw them together in ‘quizzical’ facial expressions.
“They came and they took everyone.”
Metumm taking everyone away for a feast. 
Cover (without the type) just focusing on the pattern
Maurelle, the hero to our story and the main protagonist. 
“Once upon a time the world was peaceful”

Se i was going to be witty and state something like “the story begins” but i’ve been posting about it for ages so… it’s redundant/ Either way this is the first page design.

Lock your doors and shut your windows
Lest you want to be devoured in darkness
“The Metumm will come to feast upon your children, wives and husbands and devour their bones! But what is worst, is that they then turn them into one of their own…”
First page design of the first few pages in the book. 
Giving Metus a few clothing designs even though they will never be featured. Yeah I’m just procrastinating and enjoying my brand spanking new project that i should actually be designing and getting on with hmm… This is a kind of work :S
Oh wow i haven’t had these characters for more than five minuets and I’m already drawing them in silly costumes and general banter-play.
Poor Maurelle was just having a nice time at the party and Metus came and ruined it. They hate eachother so much. Not cannon at all by the way, the story is no where near the 20’s, despite how much i love the fashion from that era. 
Still running through my designs for Maurelle in her light bringer get up. She looks incredibly young here, but this is a main image I wanted to sketch up for now until i get to this part of the book to illustrate.
Gee thanks scanner (actually my bad sketch work and in all terribleness) didn’t have to scan the crosshatch twice! 
Doodle session during another German Class, wanted to draw a fem spoy so I did. I do miss TF2 but i no longer have the appropriate equipment to play it :C
Shitty doodle (updated i needed to change something)Oh wait yes this is a Human Metus concept
