"Mothman is a legendary creature that strongly resembles Owl Man and was reportedly seen in the Point Pleasant area of West Virginia from approximately November 1966 through December 1967, dozens of people reported sightings of a huge, semi-human winged creature with glowing red eyes in and around Point Pleasant, West Virginia."

Part of a project for university - we were supposed to come up with our own idea and make a series of drawings. I've been fond of cryptozoology for a while, thus I decided on the cryptids. They were part of an end-year exibition in my school and so far are ones of the few drawings I'm really proud of c: Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Now THIS is what I love to see from Deviantart! I must say I do enjoy your art style, It kinda reminds me of Jhonen Vasquez or Bill Plympton, and I love how you kept Mothman simple and managed to put him a suit that although looking fancy, It doesn't have like a full on "sir" look to it. And as mentioned before, I like how you drew him, the style really does capture the mystery mothman has about him. In short, you did great on this picture and I hope to see more from you in the future, maybe you can do a ningen in a tuxedo and bowling hat?
