Beauties & Beasts: Lovecraftian Horrors
🕑 Added 2020-06-09 22:00:03 +0000 UTCThis Beauties & Beasts piece has a high ick factor, what with the tentacles and the teeth and the pinching claws, so I worked hard at counterpointing that with beautiful curves and fluid composition. The figure is especially curvy for just that reason. She was also supposed to be completely hairless (not just "down there"), like sea life. But lemme tell ya, people look weird without eyebrows and eyelashes, so I had to give her those. What do you all think, should I give her hair on her head, too? It would come out between the little shell growths and tentacles, and be plastered to everything (in curves, of course) because it's so wet. And what about pubes? Or am I overthinking the hair thing? I tend to overthink things in general. (Although believe it or not, I've gotten some snarky criticism for pubic hair decisions. "Dude, what's with the giant bush? Do you know what decade this is?" (I sometimes do), and, on the flipside, "Whoah! Why no pubes? She looks like a kid!" Though I dare say one would be hard-pressed to call this figure a kid.) The finished piece will be very wet and shiny, with tons of texture. Again, trying to walk that line between unsettling and beautiful.
