Crack of dawn

this one is more a color study than anything else... a dusk or dawn setting, although it shows a more mature Catalina with a bee warrior seeing the invading pirates... this idea will most probably not make it as Catalina is supposed to be a child when the story happens, but I like the colors. :)

Sigbin 3

now here's a much more menacing version of the sigbin which I am much happier with.

the multiple eyes on each side are inspired from the philippine demon mask that one sees in local wood shops.

below is the full body version, basis of its description of some sigbins were:

• head of a crow
• legs of a grasshopper
• stripes like a tiger- this one is from a story from someone i actually know in the province, where he described the sigbin entered our house and fought with one of our dogs. it was a sad sight our dog, "Martha" started coughing up blood later in the day and eventually died. the guy said that was the effect from the bitemarks of the sigbin.
• other common descriptions (long legs, dog's head, long tail) probably describe a local (and now extinct? or rare) kangaroo species that could exist in the area, whose bizarre appearance probably spooks some people into thinking that such a creature could be otherworldy, so i also took those into account.
