Found this old character from a sketchbook from 2012. Felt like drawing them again!

This here's Elven Face, or "Elvis" for short. Kind of a sphynx like beast/monster, originally designed for what Simon's zoo used to be before I settled to using actual mythological creatures.

9. I have a cast of characters back from 2015-2016 entirely based around different mythological characters and I think about them a lot. Most of my characters are human so I think these are probably the most unique of mine

The one from Kid Icarus Uprising, and the one from Billy and Mandy

*udrós 'water' was a PIE adjective

this led to English 'otter', as well as the words for 'otter' in Sanskrit (udrá), Latin (lutra) and Slavic (e.g. Czech vydra)

but, in Greek, it became húdrā 'water snake', origin of the mythological Hydra

yes, 'Hydra' and 'otter' are cognates
