My entry for Dell's What Lives Inside contest. The first creature that came to mind was a bat, most people view bats as creatures of horror and scares, so I began looking into various cultures to find more positive views of bats. In Chinese culture, bats are considered lucky because the word for lucky (Fu) and the word for bat (Fu) are homophones. In certain Native American cultures, bats are symbols of rebirth, dreams, and enchantment, hence the feather decorations and the dreamcatcher earring and rings on his left hand. The idea of sloths also came into mind in the form of how they move so slow that moss grows on their backs.
Myotis is a bat character who is one with nature to the point where he lost his ability to fly. Due to his long lifespan, he has an extensive knowledge of magic and nature. But he is a gentleman character who help those who are lost.
Done in Photoshop.
