Processed (from not much to way overboard) image I took several years ago of a toy I bought in Japan of a lantern with a human face (and big mouth). The name of the filter that generated this particular image was "Plastic" although I'm not sure I see anything related to "plastic" here... Anyway, this image startled me when I saw it as I thought it looked creepy.

Processed (from not much to way overboard) image I took several years ago of a toy I bought in Japan of a lantern with a human face (and big mouth). This is my current favorite way to processed images, which is to turn an image into a vector then back into a raster, then do further processing of one type or another.

The Kijimunaa is a playful forest sprite inhabiting the tops of Okinawan banyan trees. Anatomical features include eye sockets equipped with ball bearings that enable the eyeballs to spin freely, strong teeth for devouring crabs and ripping out the eyeballs of fish (a favorite snack), a coat of fur made from tree fibers, and a nervous system adapted for carrying out pranks. The Kijimunaa's brain contains vivid memories of being captured by an octopus -- the only thing it fears and hates.

One of the seven Yokai. Udipus Lucra is the Yokai of Creativity. He is the patron of artists, businessmen and the insane. He likes riddles, and now and then he makes a deal with mortals, often resulting in him getting better. He holds the Key to Enlightment. Anyone who's given this key, called an Enlightened, goes insane.

Here are a few examples of creatures from Japanese folklore. The illustrations are from Hokusai's Manga Vol. 3. I appreciate Hokusai's art for its dynamic qualities, something shared with Mignola's work. Here we have a "Rokuro-kubi." Also appearing as normal humans during the day, they go to great lengths to disguise their true forms. Though their innate urge to scare humans often wins out in the end.

GeGeGe No Kitaro - Yokai Figure

by Shigeru Mizuki

Bandai 1986

So since it's freezing in my house and too cold to go do proper work in my basement studio, i decided to start my idea to make a series of yokai ( japanese style monster) drawings since i can do this from the comfort of my warm bed. I'm going to offer them as prints and print on demand t-shirts..nothing fancy. Started reading a book about yokai and felt like drawing some.

 

He will be colored with simple flat tones though hopefully it won't look like im swiping Chasmosaur's shit too much!

 

This is a tengu, a race of mountain goblins that are usually depicted wearing priests' garments. They are more commonly known by the red face/long nose variety but there are bird faced ones like this dude. For more info on them check out:
