A certain fisherman [...] went to the same place again to fish, and he put a row of hooks on his heels in case he met the Púca again; he attached them like a horseman's spurs. When evening drew near, he made a halter of the fishing-line for the Púca. The Púca met him the second time. He himself caught the Púca, put the fishing-line over his head like a halter, and started to ride him. He drove him wherever he wanted to go, and he kept putting his heels with the hooks like spurs to the Púca's sides, so that the Púca was shedding blood from the pricks of the hooks.

The Pooka has "borrowed" my tablet stylus, and therefore I will be unable to finish my WIPs 😔

Keep Your Shirt On is a White Noise minicomic about being transgender, giving away secret family recipes, and making zines. I completed it recently and I'm proud of it so I thought I would post it separately!

It's also on my site here, and if you'd like to read the whole comic featuring these characters (and more queer monsters) you can start here. Please mind the warnings on the About page!

@hilda-appreciation-week Day 3 - Favourite Creature

all of them

I love all the creature designs in Hilda so much. I couldn’t do them all so I tried to limit myself to just the main characters and the ones I’ve personally signed the adoption paperwork for. this series really knocks it out of the park when it comes to funky little guys and I’ll always love it for that

(also, I drew this a few weeks ago and was going to explain here about timtum’s presence and how he was a scrapped comics character and he’s canon in my heart etc but it turns out as of season 3 he’s canon for REAL and even more deserving of being in this lineup. I love winning)

This is the best depiction of a pooka. 10/10 adorbs

From Fairy Legends and Traditions of the South of Ireland (1825)

The one from British Goblins: Welsh Folk-lore, Fairy Mythology, Legends and Traditions (1880) appears to be copied from it (if the dates are correct)
