Chinese New Year creature suggestion - Nian

#creaturesuggestion

Before you say it. Yes. I know Chinese New Year is in 4 months. I just wanted to do this before I forgot about it.

And don't judge my laziness. xD Kind of gave up by the 1st stage, so I rushed the last stage and now it looks like a deranged bull-clown thing. o.O;

Descriptions ||

» Egg : How strange.. This egg seems to have some sort of symbol painted onto its armor...

» Evolved : Nians are only seen once each year on the night of the Chinese New Year. They wreak havoc wherever they appear, destroying property and often eating any creatures they can find to satisfy their hunger.

However, the Science and Research Center have recently discovered that these vicious creatures can be repelled by loud noises and the color red, so as long as you have one of these two when they appear, you should be fine!

I never'd knew you drawed! It's digital art, I could never mange that. (Uses tablet)

What's that symbol on it's egg? Despite being Chinese and Asian as I am, I don't read very well. >o<
I think it says year? Or five? Derp, sorry for my stupidity. 😋

My advice for you is probably working on the face.I love how you drew the body, it's propourtionate. (My spelling lol) You could make the eyes a little diffrent so it's looking in one direction.

Good effort! I like seeing creature suggestions. Only sometimes.
And put the hashtag~ 😃

@windchill
I recently got a tablet, so I'm giving it a try. •~• I usually hand draw though.

Yeah, it says Year in Chinese. (Nian). xD Pretty original. *Nods head*

Yeah, maybe I'll fix it. owo If I get un-lazy enough.

And thanks! ^-^

@_black3333_ Very unique and original! The description is very accurate to the portrayal of the Nian in Chinese mythology. I hope it gets made 😊

don't mind me reviving old creature suggestions lol-

Love the concept, love the design.
This year's the Year of the Dragon too, sooo if it's possible, can this thing be released alongside the Loong as well, @Ian? 🥺 /nf
