In Australia, a large dangerous spirit known as the Bunyip lives in pools and ponds, which are called billabongs. There are many terrifying stories of people being pulled to a watery death. This Bunyip is more interested in a cheerful conversation, though.
Initial artwork with pencils and tea (yes, tea!). Colour experimentation through Photoshop. The colour changes show the Bunyip's strong connection to magic and the darker sides of Australian mythology.
