In most of my stories, the magical creatures are based off of mythology from around the world. But there's a place where all of the creatures are things I made up myself. I suppose it probably goes back to elementary school, when we tried to make our own Pokémon?
It's fun to do. I enjoy figuring out ideas for bodies, heads, frills, colors, and everything else. I'm really proud of some of the designs!
However my uses for these creatures are less flexible. What I really should be doing is figuring out designs for "real" mythical creatures. Like the creepy demon deer in one of my short stories. So I think I'll take a break from my own original designs, and work on more official designs. I already have a sketch for the creepy deer! Next I need to do Thunderbird, and Yeti, and many, many others...
