The Valravn breaks out

Animation Practice! I have not done real animation until the beginning of this year and it’s only been a few logo animations before my shoulder gave out. Now I’m more or less back and had this wild need to try and draw part of Zephyr’s transformation.

And guys.. I had FUN! oh my god this was a ton of fun! Kinda just did it all by gut feeling but I’m really proud of the outcome!

the nachtkrapp, or “night raven,” is a German/Austrian legend about a huge and eyeless bird that would steal children away in the night. its wings were full of holes that could cause the watcher to become diseased if they looked into them.

night ravens are rare to begin with, and even in the massive bastion that is Monster City there are few to be found–and those that are there tend to hide from their dark reputation, calling themselves spirit ravens, or Gaelic courtiers to fey.

The Nachtkrapp is a boogeyman figure From the folklore of Germany and Austria. It is most often described as a huge raven with empty eye sockets and holes in its wings. Looking into the Nachtkrapp’s empty eyes will cause immediate death, while looking at the holes in its wings can cause illness and disease.

The Nachtkrapp is most often said to snatch up wayward children, taking them back to its nest where it will tear off their limbs, rip out their heart and eat them. Other versions of the story exist in places like Hungary, Poland and Russia, where the Nachtkrapp is described as more closely resembling an owl or heron.
