Artist's Comments

Originally I wanted to colour this in dark greens and grays... or like how Sara puts it, "zombie colours" <3 but some craziness happened and it turned out bright green and yellow... so now he's green apple flavoured... :P

This is an old drawing I've been working on and off for... maybe more than two years? I don't remember when I started it.

The story behind this fellow is that he, as the title implies, eats spines. He grabs you with his long fingers and bites into the back of your neck to rip out your spine. He doesn't have teeth but instead hard skin around his mouth, similar to that of a turtle's... His strong yellow belly acids seep from his mouth and fingers to help erode your skin away faster... the only thing that limits him is that he's tied to some sort of tree or wall or whichever.

I realize that the 'spines' in his body are not very realistic... I used no reference nor did I care to look one up... When showing the uncoloured version to some friends, one mentioned that the spines looked mechanical while another mentioned that they look almost like roots. I just found that amusing. :)
