The Line-Go-Uppigator, or reptilius adlunamus, is a serpentine dragon with a zigzagging neck that grows indefinitely towards the moon. Its eyes and snout are locked in a permanent upward tilt as it hungers for the gems in the night sky. Meanwhile, its malnourished body remains seated on its hoard of gold in a state of inert and infantile fragility. One assumes that the vertebrae in its neck will eventually give way to gravity, but really, what about dragons was ever rational?
For a while I’ve wanted to figure out a way to do short videos with the drawings I do during the FancySchmancy Creature Feature. I think I’ve found a format I like: narrating over speed drawings like an eldritch David Attenborough.
More to come, hopefully, but please enjoy this first episode, and be sure to follow the YouTube and Twitch channels.
When I don’t know what to draw, I draw fish.
A few days ago, I used a random fish generator to give me a species, and it gave me the gulper eel. This eerie deep sea dweller has a set of jaws that make up a quarter of its roughly meter length, which it uses to sweep up small crustaceans. And since it’s the Christmas season, it’s got a red bulb on its tail for luring play.
We’ll call him Rudolph the Red-Butt Wriggler.
