Mortasheen concept sketch dump for April-May (Patreon)

A few miscellaneous monster sketches from the past few weeks, by far not the only ones but just some favorites I may develop further in the future. These include:

-A ceratopsian Ectosaur with a bit of insect in its skull design, not sure about this one, I like it but it's not quite hitting that Ectosaur ghostliness for me yet?

-A monster inspired by both "The Tingler" and "Fiend Without a Face," producing brain slugs from a skull-like central nest. In the corner is also a sketch of how I'd interpret the Crawling Eye from the film of the same name.

-Doodles of a blobby monster actually made of sand and seashells, or a colony of mutant foraminifers or maybe an Ectosaur based on fossil plankton.

-Kelp Mermaid?

-A monster resembling a pair of long, ghastly arms that emerge from a small bag. Couldn't resist giving it "pac-man ghost" eyes. I thought perhaps the boils covering its arms are full of acid, functioning almost like a jellyfish's stinging cells. This feels like such a fun little monster to draw it ought to be kind of "important" or "iconic." Almost want to save it for its own smaller project than Mortasheen, but I don't know.
