Another monster from Japanese folklore! This is my take on an akaname - a monster that goes around licking dirty bathrooms. Seriously, go look it up!

30-day monster girl challenge
Days 21-30; these were finished in a while now but i never got the chance to upload them until today.
I suppose not many of you will be interested in pointless info about them, but the read more doesn’t work on photosets, so feel free to ignore the wall of text and have my sincere apologies.
I managed to snag me some of that wonderful gel pen again (you can tell the lines are a bit better from day 23 onward). I wanted to keep all of the monster girls original and new (as in not my characters from before), but at some point or another I crossed the line and you can see a little Monoko cameo, the spider girl from Wasurenagumo as well as a bunch of OCs (2 of mine and the-dolphins-cry’s Kaito, who I am not sure will react like this to his GF’s tentacles since I never asked, but knowing he is a bit panicky around uncomfortable questions and situations, I assumed he’d react in a similar fashion). Regarding my OCs, I’d say I love Zu more than Anya (days 29 and 26), but I don’t really see the first one as a monster, unless she has her tentacles out, which is almost never. She did however fit the day 29 description and I was too lazy to think of 2 new characters for the challenge.
A few reoccurring characters in this one, since I liked the designs and felt like reusing them again.
Not sure when I’ll start working on digitalizing these, but I hope I don’t end up being too lazy to do it.
Also, started working on the second monster girl challenge and I might post those at some point too.
Aaand that’s it. sorry for all the text..

Nº 6: The Akaname
Akaname is a small, goblin-like yokai that dwells in the dirtiest homes and public baths. These stinky spirits have extremely long, sticky tongues to lap up the slime, grease, hair, and other filth found in bath houses and behind toilets.
