Character a Day, Batch 11, Horror (Patreon)

More "characters every day" and the theme was horror.

This was an extremely fun week for me. I usually don't let myself get too spooky or violent or weird cause frankly my usual vibe is cute sexy pinups. But it's good to have multiple interests.

I really love doing horror stuff. I like how little things do a lot in horror. You just need a shadow to fall a certain way, or a smile to look wrong, and it's gonna be a spooky time.

Flavor text goes as follows:

1. The Mothmen got distracted again.
2. Rachel was a beloved sister. Her laughter brought joy to those around her. And she was supposed to stay dead.
3. "We found something in the dreamcatcher."
4. There's more of those kids everyday.
5. They dumped the body. Then they returned to the lake, one by one.

The inspirations for each of these vary a lot. For the woman in the lotus flowers, that was probably inspired by Junji Ito's Tomie as well as the way hair behaves in water reminded me of lotus roots. Those kids were inspired by hundred year old photos of kids in terrible halloween masks. They absolutely looked the part to terrify people.

The one I'd like to rework again is the dreamcatcher picture. I think the idea of catching something in a dreamcatcher is very powerful, but it should be another "less is more" situation and it should have looked less human. Or... not a complete human.
