So I’ve been pencilling out the new treasure chest idea. I wanted to do a Mimic.
So i figured, if a Mimic really existed, it would have to hide the fact that it was fake. Most illustrators make their eyes like slits that stay open until the last second before it eats you. I thought, similar to some insects and some birds, maybe it would have multiple fake eyes, so you couldn’t tell which ones were real, and which were just painted or jewelled on. So that’s the approach i tried. Eyes all over.
