A drawing of a kushtaka, with sort of a... Unique, interpretation

So basically a Kushtaka is a transforming otter-human creature; they are said to transform people lost in the wilderness into otters themselves for various purposes. The otter is associated with traits such as friendship and kindness, but also mischief and curiosity.

For this I went for the look of a Japanese swimsuit with an otter face drawn on to the front, for a sort of 'second skin' look like an animal wife (Where an animal will take off their skin to become human; hence her lower body is that of an otter) I also gave her a transformation mask based off an otter; these tie into the Kushtaka's association with shapeshifting. Aside from that, I tried to base her a little off more traditional depictions, which often have a fairly basic human/otter body with a more detailed face and neck-length hair

...As an aside, it's weird how universal animal wives are
