I usually wait till October to draw horror-themed characters, but with the film SLENDER MAN out in theatres next week, I thought I’d give all of you a tutorial on my take on this creepypasta character from internet lore.
This is MY own interpretation of SLENDER MAN based on his general description. This is not the movie version.
There are different versions of what he actually looks like, but there are a few consistencies: he’s tall, extremely skinny, usually wears a suit, and his facial features are hard to distinguish.
Enjoy! You’ll have to wait till October for other Halloween characters, but I hope this tutorial will tide you over till then.
Happy drawing,
Ramny
CHARACTER BIO:
The Slender Man is a being (male in appearance) who looks like a man with extremely long, slender arms and legs. He also appears to have 4 to 8 long, black tentacles that protrude from his back, though different photographs and enthusiasts disagree on this fact, and therefore it is theorized he can ‘contract’ these tentacles at will.
He is described as wearing a black suit strikingly similar to the visage of the notorious Men In Black, and as the name suggests, appears very thin and able to stretch his limbs and torso to inhuman lengths in order to induce fear and ensnare his prey. Once his arms are outstretched, his victims are put into something of a hypnotized state, where they are utterly helpless to stop themselves from walking into them.
