Here are the updated designs of my gender-bent steampunk re-imaginings of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde I came up with in 2017 for the LKHFF Monster Countdown to Halloween.
Backstory: Dr. Harriet Jekyll is a brilliant yet shy and timid female scientist who believes that within every good man or woman is an inner darkness linking us to our animal ancestors. So in her laboratory, she concocts a potion to rid herself of the beast within her own soul, only for something to go terribly wrong. Rather than destroying the hidden darkness, the potion brings it to the surface, twisting Harriet's body into that of a huge, busty cackling hyena! This new entity, who names herself Evelyn Hyde, is Jekyll's complete polar opposite. Aside from not being human, Hyde refuses to acknowledge any of society's laws or niceties, living in pure anarchy and chaos. And where Jekyll is small, shy, timid and weak, Hyde is strong, seductive, flirtatious, brazen...and murderous!
Note: Jekyll's redesign was partially influenced by Selena Kyle from the animated adaptation of Batman: Gotham by Gaslight, while Hyde was influenced by a spotted hyena rather than a striped hyena, and I replaced her skirt and spats with lingerie.
