CC06 Knopf's Halloween

[Knopfkater]

Such a cool theme


i wrote ideas down, did some research and fall in love with the idea of two companions,
which met in the 19th century freak show Gulliver and try to escape from there.
My humanoid is the Lady Raven, which where born with feathers(and if it fits  other  raven features ) 
abandoned, but found and raised by the Show manager Mr. Thomas Gulliver.

My creature is "the Monster of black forest", but aside from the shows everyone calls it spider.
John Gulliver  often tells the story, how he caught it on one of his expeditions.
But in reality, some sailors sold the creature to him a long time ago.
Raven always loved to be around the beast, feeding it, playing with it, but always thinking that "spider"  
seems to be more intelligent then a animal.
The insect like creature behaves like it would understand every word she says to it, not knowing how to answer

i would appreciate your thoughts on the idea and designs. 
sadly i don't know if i can work further in the next week :(
so wish me luck,  keep up creating awesome stuff guys
