Drawn with a ballpoint pen on paper then cut out in photoshop and placed on a grey background for effect. Just a creature that appeared on the paper as I drew.

I hold people who can draw with a ball point pen in high respect, its hard to shade with (but do-able)

Absolutely in love with the way you crosshatch. You reminds me of one of my favorite illustrators

It looks like something from a bad dream I had. Except in my dream it was a more of a dog like thing but it looked the same in structure and skin, the head looked a little different and my thing had a boney tail... creepy 10

Beautifully insane! I just love the whole effect you have here. Great use of composition and movement and the use of gray in the background really brings it to life...

I want one of your bird-monster creatures. I love that expression... matches that of mine today, when I had to go to Art Class, half brain dead.

I agree with the other commenter that shading in ball-point is hard to do.. Such a pain, especially if you mess up because you can't erase.
