sketches, goats, and chupacabres. oh my!

Ok so, during my drop periods at school, i never really do anything worth mentioning (which directly translates to either drawing or sleeping). well one particular drop period, i found myself in the company of Ahsley Rivenbark (a most amazing person!) and she happened to be doing a project on chupacabres. which are apparently demon dog creatures of death who suck goat blood. which technically i suppose makes them vampire demon dog creature, but whatevski. so, being the creeper that i am, i decided to look up a picture of a chupacbre and draw it in my sketchbook o' doom. so i find this cartoon, and i redraw it. however half of the picture is cut off, leaving me with my own imagination and a pencil to "fill in the gaps" if you will. since the thing was hunched over, i decided to see if i could try and draw a goat in its clutches about to be eaten. however, due to the rather unfortunate placement of the thing's hands (and its rather, ahem, interesting posture) and the awkward way i placed the goat.....the effect was quite different then i expected. not to mention that i had the goat like screaming. so this once semi-cute cartoon has now turned into a monstrosity. i call it. goat rape. 'cus that's exactly what it looks like. not intentionally of course. awkwardness just sort of tends to happen when i'm around. its rather disturbing actually (the cartoon). i kind of want to burn it in disgust.....but it makes me laugh, in a disturbingly wicked kind of way. in the words of rachel west.
