Well I don't often do fanart, in fact, I never do fanart. But this is the exception.
I've been a fan of Tove Jansson's Moomin land ever since I was a little kid, after discovering the aged books in my school library.
The character of the Groke long haunted me as a child, with the imagery of her gliding under the moonlight, leaving a path of ice behind her, as she hunted for her prey firmly ingrained in my mind.
Well, here is my homage to the Groke. I tried to stick to Jansson's pen style, I hope I was successful. Anyway, it's just a bit of fun regardless.
By the end of this, I was so sick of drawing all those little lines!
