Description: This next and final tutorial is going to be freakin awesome because it is going to be on a mythological creature that was created from my imagination. I received a comment on one of my tutorials which said that I should do more demon tutorials. So here I am with this sweet tutorial on how to draw an Imp. Now as history goes an Imp is a mysterious being like fairies and demons. There is countless tales of Imps in old folklore that date back centuries ago. Most relate Imps to being the Devils minions or attendants of the Devil. They are described as being very small and sometimes child like. These creatures are almost like Smegal from Lord of The Rings how they are bad but can be turned over to the good side. But when and if they do turn to the good side it is only because they want social interaction and acceptance from being so lonely. There are also other beliefs that Imps were spirits that served witches in the middle ages as well as wizards. Some Imps where kept hidden inside precious gems and cork covered glass jars and they were later summoned to serve there keepers. The mystery of Imps is so unknown and unverified which is why they remain a part of the myth and folk. There are a few character Imps from DC Comics such as Mr. Mxyzptlk, Bat-Mite, Qwsp, and Thunderbolt. My Imp is more demon like and evil. I gave him a raised brow to make him look more mischievous so that carries a mysterious image. This tutorial will show you how to draw an Imp step by step. I will be back tomorrow with more fun drawing lessons for you all so keep your eyes open people.
