Forest Spirit

The first Miyazaki animated movie I've seen was "Princess Monoke". It was a looong time ago. And I though it was weird... But don't worry, since I rewatched it later, I love it and I think it's one of the best Hayao's movies !

But there's something I ALWAYS loved very much : HIM ! ^^

What a wise face & fluffy body, and the grass growing & dying under his paws ! I fell in love with his design & the whole concept in the first seconds I saw him. I can't hide the fact he inspired me for Dracunnum's final design. 8D


So, it's my little tribute to my favourite Ghibli's monster.
Oh, and the little challenge about this pic : I only used a ballpoint pen & a white pencil on orange paper... ^^
