Kay Erik attempt

"The entire skull was exposed beneath a thin, transparent membrane grotesquely riddled with little blue pulsing veins. Sunken, mismatched eyes and grossly malformed lips, a horrible gaping hole where the nose should have been."
~"Phantom" by Susan Kay

I attempted to represent this (key word being attempt) but wasn't too satisfied with the final product. Something about this isn't, for lack of a better term, ugly enough. I thought it was presentable enough to post, however.

Now that I look at it, it reminds me of myself when I wake up in the morning prior to my Cheerio fix.

Erik belongs to Leroux, ALW, and Kay, but the art is mine.
