#yokaijuly day 14: the nurikabe, a doggo-type thing that is also a wall and always getting in the way.
#Yokaijuly day 13: the Shikome, a female spirit that is super fast, easily distracted by good food, and extremely crap at putting on makeup. I can relate to two of those things.
#yokaijuly day 12: the Hannya, a woman who becomes demonic due to jealousy. It's expressed in Noh theatre using a mask meant to depict both rage and sorrow depending on the angle you look at it, though to be honest their expression reads to me as resting condescension face.
#yokaijuly day 11: the rokurokubi, a person whose neck extends while they're asleep so that their head can get into mischief. This sounds like a way to get productivity out of your sleep hours but I'm pretty sure the head only does bad stuff and you don't remember it. #yokai
@atlasincognita My style's a lot more cartoony than many, but still not afraid to get detailed and gruesome :) I'm at https://t.co/3LoREanXUZ
#Yokaijuly day 8: Isogashi, a creature that is constantly running like it's late for an appointment, and, if it possesses someone, will make them way too energetic. Sounds useful but exhausting. #妖怪
#yokaijuly day 6: the #umibozu, a water dweller that sinks ships unless it's handed bottomless barrels to make them too confused to drown people. I've seen depictions ranging from 'Lovecraft would like this' to 'diglett of the sea' :) #yokai #youkai
#Yokaijuly day 3: the #Nue, a shapeshifting creature that chirps like a birb. Can be other animal combos, but often depicted with a monkey's face, a tiger's legs, a dog's body and a snake's tail :) #yokai #youkai
#yokaijuly day 2: The #waira, an ox-beast with big ol' digging claws. I feel like he doesn't really work as a chibi but maybe I should revisit this poor critter as a proper detail drawing someday. #yokai #youkai
