  1. Just the head of a cockatrice. I tried drawing a body, then gave up because I couldn't make anything look good.

  2. Drawtober 2025 Prompt 15. Glitter.

    Dip pen and nib, the ink is Diamine's Walnut. Usual ink straight to paper. And while it is a perfectly servicable drawing ink, a dark sepia - it is an unfortunate ink to come up in the inkvent calendar on the day that Glitter is the prompt. *sigh* So it's the first prompt that I feel I have not really stepped up to the plate properly in execution. The deadly glitter I was imagining in this basilisk's eye I don't think really comes across. Maybe if I put a wash over everything except the eye? But I wasn't brave enough to do it.

    Well maybe it doesn't really mean it. My basilisk/cockatrice usually wear sunglasses anyway because they tend to be friendly types.
    The people at my Community Shed's art group burst into laughter when I referred to it as a killer chook.

  9. A legend from Cumbria claims that a man named John Tallentire once slayed a cockatrice in the village of Renwick. As a reward for ridding them of that rooster-headed monster, the local church exempted him and his descendants from ever having to tithe again. #MythologyMonday

  11. Old cockatrice concept i had n sprite i made last year :)

    Theyre small brood parasites and invade the nests of wild junglefowl and domestic chickens. The unsuspecting hens raise the eggs as their own, blissfully unaware of the switch until it’s all too late… and it eats its broodmates.

  12. This cockatrice statue stands guard at the entrance to Walt Disney World's Be Our Guest Restaurant. A dragon-like creature with the head of a rooster, the cockatrice possesses a lethal stare, though some legends say that it’s the monster’s breath that’s deadly.

  13. A #CanadaGosatrice honking out the final hours to vote on my #smaugust poll.

    Which dragon will be victorious? Deep Sea? Gloopy? Will the common garden dragon pull ahead or will the arctic dragon make a miraculous comeback? It all comes down to you!

  14. Do we do Folklore Thurs/Fri here? I'll try today!

    Wherwell was home to an unusual creature - a cockatrice (a dragon with the head of a cockerel) that terrorised the village in the 1500s.
    They obvs still remember it as there is one on their weathervane!

    Here’s a piece I did inspired by it and you can read a bit more over on my blog!
