Description: Hey guys, what about another epical lesson for today? We'll be diggin' into a lesson on “how to draw a banshee”, step by step. Of course, I've got the inspiration from World of Warcraft, with the ghost witch ladies that you kill at undead spots, (like graveyard areas). These creatures of lore have always raised curiosity in my mind since I was a little kid. Just the other day I rented a movie from the After Dark series, and it was on a story called Scream of the Banshee or something like that. Lauren Holly was in the flick and aside from watching a horror movie, I felt myself going back in time because the feeling that the movie gave off almost made it seem like I was back in the late nineties. Anyways, you should have a blast with this tutorial, and be sure to try and stay logged in because I have some more drawing fun coming your way.
