The Monopod Entry # 16

The Monopod Entry # 16

Haha! Damn you! I mean the heel-butt is amazing (and solves a bit of the how does one poop with a singular buttock mystery) and the lil stretchy twisted webbed armpit skin is damn cute…. but have you guys ever tried to draw a teasingly seductive monobrow? I mean that right there is the kinda skill I appreciate!

Moll Dyer Entry # 10

Third Place Moll Dyer Entry

Why hello lil furry bottomed most adorable witch I’ve ever seen? What I’m most curious about is her non-broom mode of locomotion? is it some kinda hoppy, water baloon or Bloop like motion or what I consider 1000 times creepier… like a starfish she can scuttle along, almost unmoving with her thousands of lil hair-like legs!

Judge’s Comments – The living embodiment of a teardrop, frozen solid with fuzzy frost for skin. She reminds us all that even witches deserve hugs. Especially witches, even. It also reminds me of the movie Batpussy when the titular character travels around town in her terrible costume on a bouncy ball and falls off of it a good two, three times.

The Sea Goat Entry # 15

The Sea Goat Entry # 15

Well dammit if those aren’t the most adorable lil corgi legs I’ve ever seen pasted on a goat fish! I gotta say though, even though it sorta looks swollen with goaty roe (erf)… I stand by that this looks to be the cleanest smelling entry this week!

Judge’s Commentary
#15 – Beautiful cross between guinea pig, ferret, fat fish and goat. Very nice! I just want to cuddle this little guy

The Beast Out of the Sea Entry #12

The Beast Out of the Sea Entry #12

In my best Monty Python royal voice – “heeeellooooooo! Heeelloooo! heeeelllOOO!” haha, that really is a kinda fantastic lion’s maw and is it my imagination or does your devil beast sit a lot like a pug?

The Cockatrice Entry # 15

The Cockatrice Entry # 15

Well you have officially won the “best Halloween costume designed for Burt ever” contest, and if you drop off the tail, that is one hell of a wicked winged peen drawing!

The Nagumwasuck Entry # 11

The Second Place Nagumwasuck Entry

Ha even hideous barrel chested, potentially hitler stached and entertainingly skinny limbed Nagumwasucks deserve a nice schvitz on occasion right? Also I’m entertained that the man boobs are so saggy yet the nipples so perky!

Judge’s Commentary – This entry speaks to my inner child who wants to believe in faeries…. clearly the artist was channeling Danny DeVito – a kind and generous comedic talent who happens to be vertically challenged and less than conventional in his appearance. Could Danny DeVito be a REAL Nagumwasuck? To paraphrase Peter Pan, “I do believe in faeries. I do believe in faeries” — if I truly believe then I have to recognize and reward the brilliant vision of the artist who thinks that Danny DeVito in a Russian bath house, could be a real, live Nagumwasuck. Kudos for thinking in terms of real-life application of the theme.

The Giant Freshwater Octopus Entry # 12

The Giant Freshwater Octopus Entry # 12

Haha! No fair! is this gonna be one of those magic beasts where we say oh look so cute then someone finds our corpses like 2 months later having starved to death as it’s impossible to look away? Also if you were to put a lil button nose about bucket level… he’d look oddly like an ewok!

The Murphysboro Mud Monster Entry # 10

The Murphysboro Mud Monster Entry # 10

God damn that’s nice! Such a great vegetative and mossy texture! I will however suggest that to really stand against a wall like a pro, he needs a cigarette and honestly… an Exodus shirt wouldn’t hurt either

The Tauret Entry # 13

The Tauret Entry # 13

Maybe it’s an issue I need to work on personally, but I swear everything this artist has ever drawn I want to dress in Wellies, rain gear and feed marmalade to…. Ha! I mean how cute are those pinpoint eyes and lil puffbal sleeves?

The Dark Lord Entry # 16

The Dark Lord Entry # 16

We did it all for you baby dinosaur who shouts “not the mama!” but for some reason is sporting the scalp of hitler and ferociously stern brows! We did it all for you! My only complaint is that when i counted i wanted there to be six toes!

The Centaur Entry # 13

The Centaur Entry # 13

God, I just love this job… so question one: Is that hitler? and question two: is that popcorn stuck to his chest? I mean, I know it’s not but it really makes me happier to pretend it is…

The Lil Owl Entry # 21

The Lil Owl Entry # 21

hahaha! Ok seriously what business do you have making a bird look that freaking contented!?!

The Leshy Entry # 12

The First Place Leshy Entry

Hahaha! the old growth soul patch worn as the exclusive facial accessory is always such a gamble… especially when you look a lot like a giant fork toed tomatillo… but i think he may be pulling it off… and god i love that lil dangly dinosaur arm!

Judges’s Commentary
– I couldn’t tell you why I picked it. Other than it seems to be the most “mythical”, partly because of the soul patch, and mostly because of the atrophied right arm, that seemingly has only one function; hanging. This beast apparently hides its unmentioned ability to float high above the evergreens, its bulging eyes lighting the night sky, looking for its nocturnal mission. Kudos to the artist. You have rare vision. Embrace your talent.

The Christmas Elf Entry # 21

The Christmas Elf Entry # 21

God that’s stupid good curly n fluffy elf hair and brows… I’m going to say if he lowers his grip on that hammer, he could let the leverage do a lot more of the work and he wouldn’t have to lean into his work so… though it does make it a lil more adorable…

The Hoop Snake Entry # 11

The Second Place Hoop Snake Entry

Man I love that lil climber! In other news I think this would make a great efficiency reducing break room poster with the caption “every inch you gain, is towards your own demise” or perhaps just “motivation?” in big block letters…

Judge’s Commentary – Gotta love the remorseful eyes that seem to say “Hey, I’m a hoop snake.  This is what I do!”  The drawing has a Terry Gilliam quality to it that makes me laugh.

The Headless Horseman Entry # 10

The First Place Headless Horseman Entry

God some of you really do have an uncanny knack for cuteness… though one could potentially argue that riding an overstuffed hoofless plushy is about as metal as picnicking at Ravinia

the Merman Entry # 16

the Merman Entry # 16

So you have to wonder, if way back when, before he was an intergalactic crime lord and when he sorta looked like a sea tailed Eric Cartman, if jedi mind tricks worked on him then?

Anubis Entry # 12

Anubis Entry # 12

Ha! Damn you for being so good! Though I have a hard time she could readily send someone off to damnation… That chin looks so soft and fuzzy, look at those adorable cast separated swollen digits and is that the jacket from the cover of “Ramona the Pest”?

The Questing Beast Entry # 19

The Questing Beast Entry # 19

Ha! A butt fly ridden Questing Beast, and an alternating direction, eternal portrait, you can’t really ask for a better capper to this week than that. Sorta love the armadillo/monitor lizard shape on this guy, even if he can’t really dig with those lil hoofed legs, I bet he’s burrowing into your heart!

The Wulgaru Entry # 11

The Wulgaru Entry # 11

Ha! You know at first I saw this as more of a “waaah, I can’t get anywhere cause I’m just a whiney stump on the ground…” but the more I look and see the obvious path of slowly flattened grass and stone look of determination in those eyes, I see it much more as a comment on positive thinking!

Judge’s Commentary

This stump rules! Usually I hate monsters/people with creepy little teeth but it works for him!

The Thriae Entry # 15

The Thriae Entry # 15

So fuzzy! For those of you who didn’t exist in the 70s, this is what moms looked like back then, well usually there wasnt as much bumblebee involved, but you know what i mean. Man those legs hang cutely, and what’s up with the off number of nubbins? Extra witches finger on the right? or just a prophesying accident with the left?

The Hootpecker Entry # 8

The Hootpecker Entry # 8

So our many time champion mythical beast warrior on hiatus for schooling, E wizzle, once coined the term “snoodling” for a very different activity, but I can’t help to think that it works just as well for this! he/she looks so very contented, you cant help but smile a little. And if you are heartless and feel no warmth just giggle at how freaking fat it is!

Judge’s Commentary

I love that he is so damn chubby and sleepy and happy. It just makes me smile.

the Turkey Entry # 26

the Turkey Entry # 26

wheel of fortune turkey! Ha so does the bankrupt just say you’re officially delicious on this version? That is some dam fine and accurate craft making, I was never that good with scissors!

the Turkey Entry # 5

the Turkey Entry # 5

Man that is a fantastic tiny little sad beak! And I’m saying he’s sad cause he knows he looks freaking delicious… well except for the gobsticles, but even that’s just a matter of taste…

The Long Wang Entry # 13

The Long Wang Entry # 13

So at first I thought it was just sort of giving me a “hmmph” look, but the more i look into those eyes, the more i can feel it’s disappointment… but what have I done? ha… Anyways the safety tipped antlers are pretty great and his flattened leechlike body shape is making me very happy!

the Pope Lick Monster Entry # 13

the Pope Lick Monster Entry # 13

I think this is pretty much exactly an aqualine face, and man it’s creepy as hell, creepy enough that the six adorable grub faces can’t offset it, or maybe it’s the horns looking jestery that tips it… regardless bravo

Judge’s Commentary

This was clearly the best that was left after picking the top two. Very “true to description” Goatman

the Gorgon Entry # 14

the Gorgon Entry # 14

It’s a bio-steam-punk Gherkin Gorgon. So first off it’s kinda fantastic. But the lil riveted head flailers, those sweet gumdrop eyes and his general downhill style are my favs… And prolly the weeniest we’ve seen this week.

The Phoenix Entry # 12

The Phoenix Entry # 12

Ow my brain! Ok so is that a pistachio, a land clam, or a crazy Okeefean egg? And I would be the happiest man alive if the next time I bought Raisin Bran, this was on the box.

The Yowie Entry # 10

the First Place Yowie Entry

Holy Hell! Where to start? Hell… So round, so warm,so full of hugs… hugs… loneliness and terror! I kinda assume they aren’t meant to be but if you let your mind see those as nylons on its ass it’s even freakier! love it!

Judge’s Commentary

What the fuck is that thing? Ok, ok, I know there are no kangaroos, bandicoots, etc. I’m calling this entry first place because, when I scrolled down the page and saw it, the first word out of my mouth was, “Yowie.”

The Behemoth Entry # 12

The Behemoth Entry # 12

Now i mean this in the best way possible but i swear everytime I glance I intantly think to myself “poop sundae!” My biggest concern isn’t even for the village getting squashed by his mass it’s where you get a cherry that big!

The Sea Hog Entry # 12

The Sea Hog Entry # 12

So assuming that there was such a thing as a sea parsnip and sea parsnips had available to them at halloween time giant wax lips and snouts available to them to appear as much more threatening beasts, this is exactly what it would look like. But that doesn’t explain those adorable useless lil hooved legs!

The Brownie Entry # 11

The Second Place Brownie Entry

Well of course ballet is hard little brownie, but it might be a teeny bit easier if you didn’t try and do it with a bowl full of steaming porridge in your hand… and if a loaf of bread and bowl are properly scaled wtf took that bite?

Judge’s Commentary

porridge, butter, bread and ballet…what else could a Brownie need really? Very coordinated, and an all around well done releve´.

The Griffin Entry # 12

The First Place Griffin Entry

I love that 6 and this one share a very similar layout and theme, only this one’s moved past the toenails (we all know its a gateway drug) into what seem to be some much more serious “scrips”… Love those haunches!

Judge’s Commentary

I’m really digging the very classic griffin here, rendered in such a nice sketch style. And the fact that he’s stone cold chilling doesn’t hurt either.

Cupid Entry # 14

The First Place Cupid Entry

Oooh I like this, going all big butted, tiny fish armed, alien world style cupid and it’s got a crazy squashed ween feel to it too…but man it’s those little two digit grabbers that seal the deal for me, coy or not this one’s nicely creepy!

The Werebear Entry # 14

The Were Bear Entry # 14

Oh man! Pigeon toed, tiny little armed AND a short sleeve bow collared sweater! Points for being the only Were-Panda in the bunch, and that is by far the best skirt pleating I’ve ever seen on this site and nice touch with the smiley shroom.

the Loch Ness Monster Entry # 9

the Loch Ness Monster Entry # 9

Hahaha… My lord that’s adorable… Am I the only one that immediately thinks testicle? And the artist claims coverup but I kinda love the 2 piece swimwear or doubled tube tops or whatever…were there Dr Seuss style bubble horn gills

the Red Legged Scissor Man Entry # 17

the Great Long Red Legged Scissor Man Entry # 17

It’s so good, but now I’m wondering if having a thumbnail for a face would make it hard to show emotion, or for that matter even speak, maybe that’s why his body language with this gruesome discovery is so powerful?

Judge’s Commentary

big thumb looks so sad from the sight of baby thumb on the ground Submitted by Jes

The Leprechaun Entry # 21

The Leprechaun Entry # 21

If I just said a dandelion…
you know I’d hardly be trying….
so we’ll say instead…
it looks you blew dry the head…

The Nephilim Entry # 10

The Nephilim Entry # 10

So Squishy! and how is it possible that with two cigarettes in it’s hands it still looks most like an enormous gym teacher? Regardless I’m totally stealing the curly Q knee caps cause those are pretty amazing.

The Melon Heads Entry # 16

The Melon Heads Entry # 16

Awww look at the lil baby arm, its not strong enough to hold anything yet, but it sure can wave good! Great pigeon toes and especially high nipples. And it’s good to know that inbred to disability or not they seem to be able to put together a pretty solid looking set of stairs!
