NGL, he looks friendly.

Honestly seems like a chill dude.

Would probably run into him in the rundown part of the space station colony and ask about local rumors. Has quest-giver energy. Something about the way he's standing.

You mean Strigoi. And presumably not by you.

I was terrified until I saw the cat. If I could pet it then I could die happy

The head reminds me a little of the Engineers helmets from Prometheus. Very nice work!

Have.... have you seen a strigoi?

They look like hulking muscular tribal vampires. Or they also look like skinny emaciated nosferatu lookin mofos.

But they deffinately don't look like no long fingers mosquito beetle from hell creature.

They are fictional characters that have been depicted. As are most that have an image come up when you search them..... they have also been depicted a certain way since those times. They wouldn't just change overnight into an alien bug monste.

That argument is like saying the modern vampire films could have used wolf creatures and called them vapires.

You'd more likely see this creature in a Sci fi film rather than a gritty Romanian horror flick.

I'll tell you the story:

I don't really know why, reddit deletes most of my posts. It may be because the image is very large, because I work in A2. It may be that some bot detects that it has something strange... no idea.

The problem is that I've been trying to upload this image for two days and I didn't get it until today. I wrote the word Strigoi many times. That more than my artistic name ends in Goiju and that my real name is Guijo created a tangle of vowels in which this being came out baptized as Strogio, the Strigoi.

Ocioretro OP t1_irf8lkz wrote

In the story I created for this illustration, a Romanian man gets locked up in Chernobyl reactor number 4. He sees a hideous creature emerge from the shadows and "he" names it Strigoi. Actually, to be honest, it is a dimensional entity made of suffering and that feeds on memories of war.

It's true! I did not notice it. Many times you draw things that are a mixture of your memories. Those Space Engineers obsessed me for a long time. Thanks!

That cat is awesome. His blue eyes are a nice touch and gives him a Mass Effect feel of a Biotic God.

I have to say, I really enjoy your art! That eldritch, unknowable and impossible art style is a favourite of mine! Good luck on future pieces!

Kwykr t1_irg7vpv wrote

Having replayed the Mass Effect series recently, my immediate thought is that he looks very Prothean, possibly another mutation from the Collectors, living in isolation

Edit: forgot to mention, I thought of this because of u/billybalverine 's original comment

Might I ask if anything directly inspired this? It looks very similar to something I've seen before, but cannot quite place.

Not at creatures are evil, Frankenstein’s monster wasn’t. Also cats might have evil creatures. Cats do just claim people what’s to say they don’t claim creatures.
