TCotC spoilers are strong with this piece, haha. I don't really care, I was so over the moon with how this turned out that I just HAD to share it.

I've had a few people guess that this is Set, but it's not. The stripes on his legs and shoulders should give you a clue who it is ;3

He's extremely disturbing and creepy-looking on the outside, but he's not some man-eating monster -- he's just really sad, lonely, and very desperate for comfort and affection. I wanted something that, at first glance, could make someone scream and run in fear... But that if they spent just a little longer looking at him, they'd find him cute.

His emaciated and ghastly appearance is kind of reminiscent of a zombie -- he could probably eat a person like the stories go... but does he want to? No! Well, okay, maybe he'll drool a little and half-nibble someone, but eat them? He just wants someone to hug him, even just smile at him.

Speaking of smiles, how d'you think he would smile? He doesn't really have a face to emote with, as you can see. He also doesn't have functioning vocal cords, so he can't speak, either... Just make weird wheezing or hissing sounds. That doesn't exactly help his problem of being lonely.
