:iconmarkothesketchguy:
As Gods created the sky, the Earth and all life upon it, so was the case with Aether - Vigil Somnis were once plentiful, as every man, woman and child had dreams. These beautiful creatures glided through dream streams and made sure no harm would ever come to those who would enter their realm. But, as mankind stopped believing in dreams, and eventually even stopped dreaming, Vigil Somnis, one after the other, left the Aether, for it seemed that all hope was lost. No dreams were left for them to guard.

Yet...even after all of it`s brethren left, one remained - one that is still waiting for that one dreamer, unique just like it, to replenish the Aether with his dreams once more...

oh THAT is so fascinating...the vague expression on its little face and its uniquely-shaped snout! :heart:

very nice story you have to go along with it, too...kind of reminds me of Neil Gaiman's Sandman Series.

I like the creature, very nice design. The picture captures the dreamy mood very well. One thing though: the tail creates a kind of imbalance. Maybe you could swirl it around the right as well or widen the picture on the left?

Cheers to Vigil Somnis, and may they soon return in great numbers and full glory because there are still a lot of us dreamers and believers! ( for instance dreaming about a career in the comic bizz!) ;) :) ;) great job man!

Wow..love the story behind the picture and I love the 'dream' effect this artwork has about it! The creature is so different but in a good way. Excellent job!
