You can thank @Rescue9 for this …thing
i was “inspired” by a comment of theirs in a comment chain
This …thing is the result.
I am not sure if I want to color this or if I even can.
I have no idea what colors it would be other then putrid reds and pinks.
I also have a tendency to over render things, so maybe its best left in black and white.
Lot starker that way.
I’m not sure what it would look like colored if you ever seen 1982’s The Thing, i was thinking colors like that .
All red and pinks and purples as it’s dripping and screeching.
But i don’t think my coloring is good enough
The premise ?
Ever seen David Cronenbrug’s The Fly ?
Three fluffies smushed together, the result of a horrifying experiment
But this is the comment from Rescue9 that got my imagination going
If you like body horror, or great 80’s special effects those are the movies for you.
No CGI just Practical effects, in camera, puppets, make up.
It all looks great 40 years on.
But the Fly was my major starting point.
Then googeling some body horror and this is the result.
One I wrote. Didn’t want to point it out specifically so it wouldn’t seem like I was advertising on someone else’s work.
A national park where a lot of Fluffies congregate and people go with their own but also is a common place for Abusers to dump the bodies of Fluffies has the ghosts join the local Feyfolk, since at that point Fluffies have been around enough to become part of nature. In the warmer months they play in an eternal Eden, in the cold months they become vengeful and a hill comes to life to consume dumping off bodies and add them to the hell found in the more Unseelie portion.
A bare hill turns into a giant Fluffy made of mud, stone, and all the corpses of the ghosts animating it.
Its not great. I focused too much on sensation to make the character and reader feel at the mercy of things in the dark but it becomes unclear in parts.
