Tis but a Scratch...

I love the monsters, truly I do.  Can't get enough of them to be honest.  But every once in awhile, I feel the need to paint some regular folk.  Just people.  Blades a' flashing, plated armor glinting in the fading light, defiant heroism...and blood everywhere.  No antennae, no feelers, no gills, claws, glowing eyes et al.  Just...people.

Of course, having said that I'm suddenly gripped with the urge to paint something creepy crawly with antennae...and gills...and claws...and and glowing red eyes!
