i totally forgot that the tantibus had a horn, and there was no differentiation between the mane and body.
 
but thanks for the tips and kind words :)

Personally, I feel like you did succeed in giving that impression of a ‘predatory’ and ‘aggressive’ creature. To me, the whole picture comes across as dark and intimidating. I really just love the whole look of it!
 
If you were to draw this again, perhaps bringing the head and neck down and lifting the ‘shoulders’ further might help give a better sense of a predatory creature.
 
That said, I do agree that it doesn’t really give the impression of the Tantibus. Before reading the description, I assumed it was more of a generic ‘shadow creature’ or a sort of ‘living darkness/shadow’ given a predatory form (along the lines of what Scribblepwn3 described). Regardless, you still did a really good job on this!

I ship it! :v

@Scribblepwn3

Looks like some pet sniffing at her ear.

As someone who experiences nightmares like this.. Well done.
 
The shadows come to life sometimes. Whispering the past into our minds and reminding us of all we regret.

The new Team Ico game looks awesome. X3
