Match made in heavenby *humon

Digital Art / Drawings / Fantasy

I wanted to do a speed picture of some random creatures from Nordic mythology, and ended up with a Näcke (Means "naked") and a Slattenpatte (Means "saggy boobs"). But wait! There's reason behind the madness!

Both creatures are said to live near streams, and both are notorious for running around naked. The näcke is said to be an extraordinary beautiful young man who lures people to him by playing on his violin. The slattenpatte is said to love young men (young men were advised not to sleep near streams or they might fall victim to a slattenpatte), so she more than any other creature would get lured to him, with or without violin. A match made in heaven!

Well, at least the slattenpatte thinks so. Mind you, the näcke is probably used to getting slattenpattes in his "net" at this point.
