While reading up on some Japanese mythology, I came up these strange creature know as Yokai, and decided to draw small art of them. From what I can gather Yokai are a class of supernatural being like ghosts, or phantom who range from being very mischievous to being down right malevolent. In this art seen clockwise I drew a Kappa which is some type of green humanoid turtle guy, a Gyaku-Gire Panda, a Kasa-obake a weird umbrella monster, and a Tengu who are found in many fighting games like Dead or Alive or King of Fighters they are bird like being who are know for their longs nose and red face. Many of these creature have a rich history and are fascinating to read about so I encourage anyone out there to give they guys a look out if you every what to learn about Japanese Folklore.
Edit: I recently learn that Umbrella monster I referred too as a Kasa-obake is actually called a "Karakasa-Obake" I thank Hexidextrous for the clarification.
