Chupacabraby ~Light-Schizophrenia

Digital Art / Drawings / Fantasy

This is my first work with my new Bamboo Fun tablet!
El chupacabra!
The Cryptid creature which supposedly sucks domestic animals dry. Name come form Chupar (to suck) and cabra (goat) for the those who aren't spanish speaking. Yeah, goat sucker.

I wanted to mix a bit the typicall descriptions of it. It has kangaroo-like legs because its said to hop like there's no tomorrow, those spikes and nice shiny eyes. Plus i wanted to give it certain feel that is reminiscent of the ugly dog-coyote corpses that some people think are chupacabras...

Trying to paint a background too and make it more of an illustration...wel it does look a bit dull, eh?

Very interesting portmanteau of the two 'chupacabras'. Personally, it annoys the Hell out of me when people call the mangy dog-things chupacabras. Those actually have their own name - Elmendorf beasts.
