I is for ‘Incubus’ in my #folkhorroralphabet a 1966 film starring a young William Shatner. A slow-build horror set on a seemingly idyllic island inhabited by demons that prey on the vain and self-centred. They’d have a field day on social media.

An illustrated linocut block of an Incubus, a folkloric monstrous demon that preys on unsuspecting women. Ye olde incel.

sketch-like digital painting made in heavypaint with lasso brush. it depicts the korok forest in mostly brown and yellow colours, highly inspired by how it looks in tloz botw. there are some korok shadows, the glowing pea plants pods decorations, glowing fireflies and a lot of greenery. there’s the master sword on its pedestal in the middle of the picture, also glowing, and link himself standing close to it, like he didn’t expect to stumble upon it.

Practicing drawing mouse adventurers. There’s so many design decisions involved when making these little guys. Opting for a Jill Barklem Brambly Hedge style with little eyes and noses and soft edges, rather than a Bluth animated style.
