Hello everyone, in this Cosmic Creations, I would like to present a drawing work as well as introduce a mythological creature from Indonesia named Ahool.
Ahool
I am very excited about this theme, which is that I really like mythological creatures both local and foreign creatures, as a child I liked the illustrations in the story books about mythological creatures in my school library, until I collected a lot of mythological story books. The stories behind these creatures are so interesting to me and of course unique and creepy which led me to this day love creepy and horror to gore works, inspiring me to work and create strange creatures of my fantasy.
On this occasion, I drew a mythological creature from Indonesia called Ahool, a creature that resembles a giant bat but has the head of an ape, Ahool is often seen in forests in the West Java area, according to local residents Ahool often hides in caves and roams at night looking for prey. Many experts argue that it is a kind of ancient animal that may still be alive today but local people believe that Ahool is a cryptid creature.
I did this work using drawing pen 0.03 and colored pencils on paper which I then edited in such a way, here are the steps :
I like to make different versions of my work, add effects digitally and change it in such a way, this is a fun thing for me as well as learning and having fun, here are some versions of Ahool that I made using Paint.net effects :
