SciFi and Fantasy Art Nature of the Beast by Ryan Bourret

They may look like woman, they may sound like woman, they may even weep like a woman to draw a man near. But then he will see their dark hair part, and after that there is no question that this is not a woman, but a mindless beast intent on having a man's flesh. Craven beasts, twisted by dark ancient magics. They are depraved creatures, wanting only the fresh taste of blood on their lips again. There is no intelligence here... *UPDATED* I added those little scars, changed her eyes, and played with the background some more. I was never very happy with this pic, but I think I'm getting somewhere with it.

14 May 2003	Emily 'Pip' Turner	Loading... -le gasp of le shock- only 4 comments?! For shame! This is awesome, I love this kind of thing.
20 May 2003	O_o ASTRID o_O	Loading... OH DEAR GOD. THOSE WINGS ARE INCREDIBLE, HOW DO YOU DO IT? I guess you might use a tablet, I WANT ONE. The Blood is so relistic and the eyes are so, just like the kind you would never win a stare down with. I admire people like you that put so much into you're work.I try, but of well. Please continue making such wonder full art. Ryan Bourret replies: "Noipe, no tablet here, just a mouse to colour it with Thanks for the nice words."
27 Aug 2003	A guy from sweden	Loading... She looks like, Oh no! What have I done!! Like she "returns to her senses". This should be on a tour, if it isn't already. She is one beautiful (and nasty) bloodsucker
8 Oct 2003	Zelda89 out the nederlands	Loading... This is the stuff she is a beaty. Im very in prest about her
25 Nov 2003	Anonymous	Loading... I would suggest (if you'd like) instead of making the blood all red, dim it a little towards the top. The bloods dripping down and you know how water lessens at the top while it's dripping down? But this is blood and should stain a bit more.

11 Mar 2004	Brandy L. Jackson	Loading... Love her eyes, and the scars are a Great touch; only one thing though - have you considered giving her sharper teeth? Anywho, still good; mentos!
