31 Monsters in 31 Days: Monster 10 - The It From Planet X

The It From Planet X - Copyright ©2013 Kevin P. Johnson

The It From Planet X this is another original monster. The idea is that he's one of those crazy aliens from the old Science Fiction movies from the 1950's who is happened upon by some astronauts and then decides that he must destroy them and the planet they came from. 

I really like this guy and I think I can use him in a comic book or something.

This drawing was done in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and Copic Markers.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Monster 9 - Mr. Teeth

Mr. Teeth - Copyright ©2013 Kevin P. Johnson


Well Mr. Teeth . . . Okay this is another made up monster on the spot (I'm so far behind on this). He doesn't really have a story yet but I bet he would eat the toes of bad little boys and girls . . . and he comes on Groundhog Day . . . and demands to be served radishes or he eats your toes instead . . . and he doesn't like the light . . . or the dark.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Monster 8 - Brain-Eating Amoeba

Brain-Eating Amoeba - Copyright ©2013 Kevin P. Johnson
Well all the rage in Louisiana these days is the super rare (although seems to be found everywhere) Brain Eating Amoeba. These guys are real . . . and really dangerous if you get one in your nose. The brain-eating amoeba's are a dangerous thing and if you hear of them in your area make sure you take proper precautions in dealing with them. This drawing is just having a little fun with a current topic and making it into a zombie.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Monster 7 - One Eyed One Horn Flying Purple People Eater

One Eyed One Horn Flying Purple People Eater - Copyright ©2013 Kevin P. Johnson
So do you remember that old song from 1958 The Purple People Eater by Sheb Wooley? Well I thought that I needed something new for this years crop of monsters and this one is fun. I wanted to add wings to him but I imagined them being really tiny on his back and as I said before I have been stuck on portraits for these (I think it's the paper size I'm using making me feel like I need to do them like this). Anyway I always loved the song and I thank Sheb Wooley for the inspiration.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Monster 6 - Grey Alien

Grey Alien - Copyright ©2013 Kevin P. Johnson

In trying to catch up on this project I recycled our old friend the Grey Alien as an idea. For some reason most of these have been portraits of monsters (I'll try to break that habit soon) but I kind of like the way some of them are going.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Monster 5 - Troll

Troll - Copyright ©2013 Kevin P. Johnson
For today's monster I decided to bring back the classic Troll. This one is a little different than the one I did a few years ago for the 31 Monsters in 31 Days and I like the hairy warts I did on the old one but this guy is kinda fun too . . . I think he looks like he could live under a bridge.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Monster 4 - The Boogeyman

The Boogeyman - Copyright ©2013 Kevin P. Johnson
The Boogeyman . . . the shadowy creature that hunts children from under their beds or from inside the closet where it is darkest and most scary for a young child trying to get through the night. The Boogeyman is absolute horror but several known weapons have been used against him with great success . . . flashlights, nightlights and the sleeping in the bed with your parents almost always works against the Boogeyman.

Well this one didn't come out the way I wanted and as I am already behind on this project there is no time to redraw him.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Monster 3 - Weirdo Cyclops

Cyclops Weirdo - Copyright ©2013 Kevin P. Johnnson
Here's another made up monster I did at Cafe Roma (again). My question is that if you have one eye then you are a cyclops and if you have three you are a triclops so with two are you just a clops?

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Monster 2 - Fire Walker

Fire Walker - Copyright©2013 Kevin P. Johnson

Well I actually made this guy up while waiting for my food at Cafe Roma restaurant in Metairie, LA and I'm really not sure what I was thinking about when I decided to make him green. He probably would have worked better in red but maybe he changes to red later.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Monster 1 - East Peoria Corn Worm

East Peoria Corn Worm - Copyright

OK so we're a bit late on the start of this project being that I was on a business trip to East Peoria, Illinois but I did get the first monster drawn while I was there. This guy is a made up creature that I thought of while in my hotel room so I decided to name him after the area. The East Peoria Corn Worm is a fierce and hungry creature that is know to appear in corn fields before the seeds are planted for the new crops to be grown. It is said that the worm will eat a farmer or a cow whole and slowly digest it's prey over the next year when it is time to feed again.

I should catch up on the drawings by the weekend.

31 Monsters in 31 Days III - A Slight Delay

Hey everyone,
Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be doing the 31 Monsters in 31 Days again this year but I will only have 29 days to get it done being that I need to go out of town for work today and tomorrow. I'll probably be able to draw the monsters but won't be able to post anything until later on in the week . . . I will still hold the final day to October 31, 2013 because it's not as fun if it doesn't end on Halloween.

Stay tuned,
Kevin P. Johnson

Slender Man

Slender Man -  Drawing Copyright ©2013 Kevin P. Johnson
Well on this one I really did not know who the character was. I held a contest on my Facebook page offering a free drawing and one of the winners suggested Slender Man. I didn't really do any research on him besides looking up drawings of him. I plan on finding out more about him because I really do like his look and may draw him again.

This drawing is 8.5" x 11" Copic Markers and Sharpie Marker.

Weird Beaked Monster




This is just a weird beaked crazy monster I did at one of our Drink and Draw meet ups. I'm not sure what he's supposed to be but I kinda like him.

This was drawn on a 6.75" x 10.5"comic book backing board with Sharpie marker and Copic Markers.

Halloween Man - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson
HAPPY HALLOWEEN! This is our old friend Halloween Man who first appeared here last Halloween. If you'll remember he's the guy that you run into when you are out Trick or Treating that looks like he is part of a Halloween yard display but then jumps out and scares you. Well this time Halloween Man has his bag and will be right beside you looking for trick or treat goodies. Have a happy and safe Halloween.

This was drawn on  part of a page of 11" x 17" Bristol Board with Sharpie Marker and colored using Adobe Photoshop.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 30 White Lady

White Lady - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson
The White Lady is a ghost of a woman who died in some sort of tragic death often involving her husband or fiancé. The White Lady has been reported all over the world  and she is often seen as a precursor of death to those who witness her. There are so many cases of this lady that the best thing for me to do is give you the Wikipedia page for the ghostly White Lady.

This drawing was done  in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper sketchbook with Sharpie Marker, Faber Castell PITT artist pen and Copic Markers.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 29 Bloody Bones

Bloody Bones - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson
Bloody Bones is one of those creatures that parents tell children to keep them from being bad. He is said to live near a pond or in a dark cupboard under the stairs. It is said that if you peeked into the cupboard you would see him sitting on a large pile of bloody bones that he had collected from children who had lied or said bad words. Bloody Bones has blood running down his face and appears as a horrible monster. He has other names as well Rawhead, Tommy Rawhead or Hobgoblin.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 28 Scorpion Man

Scorpion Man - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson
The Scorpion Man is half man, half scorpion and all awesome . . . well maybe. I actually don't know much about these guys except that they serve as guards outside of the gates that protect Shamash the sun god. It seems to me that there is potential to use these monsters in more movies and pop culture.

When I was doing this drawing I honestly was hating it and was going to start over but I just started drawing in stuff with the Sharpie marker (I usually draw with pencil first) and then I just went fast and loose with the Copic Markers and it turned out as something I like a lot. I guess seeing a project through to the end is always a good idea.

This drawing was done  in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and Copic Markers.

Cherufe - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson
From deep within' the volcanoes of Chile comes the Cherufe, a humanoid creatures made of rock and magma that is said to be the cause of volcanic eruptions and earthquakes throughout the region. The Cherufe have a fondness of human flesh and many sacrifices were made to keep the beast's at bay and stop it from causing mass destruction. There is another creature that uses this name a humanoid dragon creature that has been featured on a Cartoon Network cartoon series called The Secret Saturdays.

Am Fear Liath Mòr (The Big Grey Man of Ben MacDhui) - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson


Well friends this guy got thrown in at the last minute. I was supposed to be drawing a monster called the "Brag" but it turns out that is almost exactly the same thing as the Kelpie I did a few weeks back and I didn't want to do another water horse. So who is this guy? The Am Fear Liath Mòr (The Big Grey Man of Ben MacDhui) is a creature or ghost like being that haunts the summit and passes of Scotland's Cairngorms of Ben Macdui. The creature is said to be an extremely tall being covered with short hair but also has been described as an unseen ghostly presence that haunts mountain climbers making them feel uneasy as they feel that they are being followed by some strange creature.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 25 Paasselkä Devils


Paasselkä Devils - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson

I must admit that this is the worst monster I could have ever picked. When I originally looked it up I must have read a description of something else but wrote this on my list. Paasselkä Devils are floating balls of light that are found over a Lake Paasselkä, Finland and they move at various speeds. Sometimes they appear alone and other time in groups of several balls. People have reported that it sometimes acts as if it is  consciousness. In my drawing I had no idea what to do so I figured I'd draw some floating stuff and then a larger shape that was like a silhouette of a person that I figured would be the group consciousness. I went in and added photoshop effects and tried to make it seem as if all of this stuff was trying to join together . . . did it work?

This drawing was done  in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and then edited in Adobe Photoshop.I had planned on doing a different drawing for this but I liked this simple little line drawing enough that I decided against doing another drawing.

Lightning bugs for sure,

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 24 Flatwoods Monster

Flatwoods Monster - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson
So the Flatwoods Monster seems to have a lot of different interpretations. It is reported to be some sort of alien sighted in Flatwoods, West Virginia. I've seen a lot of different drawings of this guy as well as toys and other merchandise and they all seem to be a little different from each other with certain likenesses. The creature is said to have a read glowing head and a green pleated skirt. It also appears to float and have clawed hands and I've seen a few drawings that have it shooting lasers out of its eyes and I decided to use that. There is even a book written about this guy: The Braxton County Monster REVISED EDITION The Cover-up of the Flatwoods Monster Revealed.

 This drawing was done  in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and Copic Markers.


I think its an alien,

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 23 Phoenix

Phoenix - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson

The Phoenix . . .  being that I'm not feeling too great tonight I'm just going to quote Wikipedia on this one. "It is described as a bird with a colorful plumage and a tail of gold and scarlet (or purple, blue, and green according to some legends). It has a 500 to 1000 year life-cycle, near the end of which it builds itself a nest of twigs that then ignites; both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes, from which a new, young phoenix or phoenix egg arises, reborn anew to live again. The new phoenix is destined to live as long as its old self. In some stories, the new phoenix embalms the ashes of its old self in an egg made of myrrh and deposits it in the Egyptian city of Heliopolis (literally "sun-city" in Greek). It is said that the bird's cry is that of a beautiful song. The Phoenix's ability to be reborn from its own ashes implies that it is immortal, though in some stories the new Phoenix is merely the offspring of the older one. In very few stories they are able to change into people." the rest of this article can be read at Wikipedia.

This drawing was done  in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and Copic Markers.I had planned on doing a different drawing for this but I liked this simple little line drawing enough that I decided against doing another drawing.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 22 Ndendeki (Giant Turtle)


Ndendeki - Copyright ©  2012 Kevin P. Johnson
OK so the Ndendeki  is a Giant Turtle . . . and that's all I know about it. I couldn't really find out anything about this guy except it's a giant turtle at least 20 feet tall (mine is bigger than that) and that it has a name that I find cool and interesting and I think that their is also an Asian techno band called the same thing which makes it less cool . . . because of the techno not the Asian.

This drawing was done  in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and Copic Markers.

MOMO - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson
MOMO - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson

MOMO - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson
The Mo-Mo is Missouri's version of the Big Foot. Mo-Mo is short for Missouri Monster a 7 foot tall creature with long black hair that covers it's face and pumpkin shaped head. The creature is said to have a terrible stench and is reported to eat dogs.You can read about this guy on the American Hauntings website.

I did three versions of this guy because I couldn't really decide how he was supposed to look. I just figured he was a mass of hair and had glowing eyes because if he had a pumpkin head it only made sense to have glowing eyes right?  These drawings were done  in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and then colored later in Adobe Photoshop.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 20 Lusca (Giant Octopus)


Lusca - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson
The Lusca is believed to be a giant octopus living in the waters of the Caribbean that is said to grow from 75 to 200 feet long and attacks ships and submarines. The giant octopus has never been found at these sizes and is probably just a rumor spread by fisherman. Now after I did this drawing I came across a different version of the Lusca that I wish I had drawn that being a giant half shark half octopus creature found in the Bahamas. The tale of that version of the Lusca can be read about at the American Monsters website.

This drawing was done  in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and then colored later in Adobe Photoshop. I added a bit of texture to it to see how I liked that effect and it worked a bit like I wanted.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 19 Loveland Frog

Loveland Frog - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson

Loveland Frog Head and Hand - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson

The Loveland Frog was sighted by three different Loveland, Ohio police officers back in 1972. Described as a 3 to 4 foot tall and 50-75 pound leathery skinned creature with a frog or lizard like-face. The first two officers claimed that the creature was in fact a frog type creature while the third has claimed that it was nothing more than someones pet lizard that was let go. You can read the whole tale on the X-Project Paranormal Magazine website.

I really liked drawing this guy the bottom drawing was actually first I was thinking that it was like it was his "mugshot" as a young frog and then I got the idea that he got old and fat and just drank beer and listened to heavy metal music (therefore the metal sign). This was silly and I like it.

Both of these drawings were done  in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and Copic Markers.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 18 Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp

Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson
The Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp (Lee County, South Carolina) is a 7 foot tall bipedal creature of massive strength. It's been reported that it has dark hair with scaly lizard like skin on it's hands, feet and face but I chose to draw him without the hair and more of a lizard monster with big teeth. This guy has been seen several times and attacked cars near the swamp causing lots of damage. Read more about these events on wikipedia: Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp

This was drawn in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper  in a sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and Staedtler Pigment Liner pens and then was colored in Adobe Photoshop.

31 Monsters in 31 Days: Day 17 Gui Shu

Gui Shu - Copyright © 2012 Kevin P. Johnson

Gui Shu the Tree Ghost is a creature I couldn't find much about and only two other artist renditions seemed to be on the internet which makes me believe that this ghost has another name. What I did learn is that this is an angered spirit that can make a tree look ominous and even move a little. What the spirit does is frighten passers by forcing them off their path into the woods. It then moves to another tree causing the travelers to become further away from the path becoming disoriented and eventually lost in the woods.

This was drawn in an 5.5" x 8.5" Strathmore (400 Series) 60 lb. paper  in a sketchbook with Sharpie Marker and Staedtler Pigment Liner pens.
