OCTOBER MONSTER SKETCH A DAY #4

To commemorate my favorite month (October) and my favorite holiday (Halloween), I'm doing a monster sketch per day.

This is my take on the classic sci fi/horror character, The Fly. I think both the 1958 original and the 1986 remake are creepy and cool in their own ways, but I tend to lean towards the 80's David Cronenberg-directed version as my favorite. That said, I wanted my take on the character to skew a bit sillier, so I did a loose interpretation of the 50's version. I even drew this a bit more stylized, with wonky proportions and angular shapes, reflective of cartoons from the 1950's.
