What Diyu and its demons are like in *The Gray Show* (comic on hiatus).
In The Gray Show, the entrance to Diyu is the Great Wall—or rather, a version of it that acts as a portal to hell—and the hellfire takes the form of fireworks. The most common creatures in this hell are dragons and other animals from Chinese fauna, albeit with demonic appearances; the demons themselves are humanoid or anthropomorphic—predominantly humanoid with animal traits—and wear Chinese-style attire that blends Gothic, demonic, and stylized elements. They utilize the pentagram symbol, adapted to their own culture. Their hell is based on various eras of Chinese history, primarily antiquity, and draws inspiration from traditional depictions of Diyu. Among the most frequent demonic forms are monkeys—referencing Sun Wukong from Journey to the West—as well as figures from other Chinese tales and legends. Their standard weapons are Chinese swords and spears, while the monkeys wield staffs. Female demons are based on various reinterpretations and designs of Mulan; straight hair stands out as their most common feature. The fire resembles fireworks because that is one of the first elements people associate with China. Although red is the predominant color of this hell, the color palette varies to suit the aesthetic or to provide contrast and symbolism. They have their own version of Cerberus: a gigantic, monstrous three-headed panda—chosen as an iconic Chinese animal—that serves as King Yan's pet. Finally, the demons' facial markings are inspired by the masks and makeup of Chinese theater.
What the demons of greed and their circle are like in *The Gray Show* (comic on hiatus). By Blondie 666
The Circle of Greed is reminiscent of Las Vegas but also incorporates elements of a swamp. In my version of Hell, toads and frogs represent greed—given that they are essentially the same creature—so most demons in this circle possess humanoid toad or frog hands alongside demonic features. They take on humanoid animal forms, such as foxes and raccoons, due to their fictional association with money. Goats are also present—appearing in every circle of my Hell for their demonic connotations—and can assume humanoid forms, just like other demons across the various circles. These demons wear elegant, expensive suits, though their hats are shaped like swamp leaves—or parts of their attire mimic leaf shapes—and often incorporate a "toad-flower" motif (an infernal version of the real plant). Their clothing is predominantly green, black, red, or gold, reflecting the colors of toads and frogs. Their appearance may also combine animal traits, such as a fox with frog hands. The Circle of Greed evokes 1920s America through its gambling culture and references the movie The Princess and the Frog (thanks to the toads and the swampy setting). Their outfits are often adorned with diamonds, gold, and glitter, or feature casino-themed elements; dollar signs, poker symbols, toad skulls, and dice are common in their designs. Their teeth range from typical sharp fangs to gold teeth or standard fangs studded with diamonds. Their shoes are elegant but often feature toes shaped like toad or frog feet. The water in the Circle of Greed is molten gold—representing what belongs to its inhabitants—though, like the other circles, it also contains rivers of lava and blood. Furthermore, the demons of Greed are the species with the fewest winged members; possessing toad-like traits, most are capable of making massive leaps, allowing them to cover great distances. Another detail: the frontal bone of their skull is made of gold, enabling them to easily crush a sinner with a headbutt—sometimes combined with a jump. That said, all demons in Hell possess resilient bodies and bones; in reality, any of them can deliver a powerful headbutt. However, the Greed demon's skull features that golden section, making it even more dangerous. I decided not to give the Greed demons wings, as their designs were already highly detailed—adding wings would have been excessive—and I thought: why not give them the ability to make huge leaps instead, given their toad-like characteristics?
The 8 Princes of Hell in my comic, *The Gray Show*.
Lucifer,Vlad, beelzebub, Asmodeus, Mammon,iblis y Rey Yan.
This comic is currently on hiatus; the first one to be published in the future will be *Blondie*.
*The Gray Show* will remain on hold until I can hire assistants.
It is a very extensive comic, and I am the only person working on my projects. However, I wanted to share these designs of the Princes of Hell; I also posted the first chapter of *The Gray Show* on my profile, so please visit my account if you’d like to see more designs.
Everything is already planned out; I just need to draw and write more chapters. It is not in a beta phase.
However, I want to work on the *Blondie* comic first because it is a short story I can produce on my own, allowing me to finally complete and publish a finished work.
Synopsis: After being banished from Hell and losing his title as King, Vlad lives in the human world, unsure of what to do with his life. Meanwhile, his adopted daughter, Megan, grows weary of her routine and decides to try to change her life. Vlad attempts to do the same while grappling with past failures; unbeknownst to them, a serious event is brewing that will alter their lives—and the lives of others—forever.
*The Gray Show* is a drama and religious horror story that incorporates elements of Gothic culture, as well as metal and rock music. It offers a reinterpretation of the Bible and its mythologies, as well as demonic lore.
Its style is similar to *Berserk*, *Monster*, *Spawn*, and *Devilman*.
I would love to know what you think of these designs.
Blondie — Chapter 1 (Comic on Hiatus)
Blondie
Comic in production
A quick update: my MacBook has stopped working, so I plan to buy a tablet to get back to digital drawing.
I am currently working on some short comics featuring my character, Blondie; her backstory and world are already established. The project is in the production phase, and I am the only one working on it ❤️. Blondie is about a German girl who built airplanes alongside many other women—mostly Americans—to help out during World War II. I don't want to reveal too many details; I want you to read it for yourselves 😊.
It is a work aimed at an adult audience that blends dark fantasy, psychological horror, gothic elements, and mystery.
It’s somewhat similar to *The Truman Show*, *The Nightmare Before Christmas*, and *Over the Garden Wall*, but with themes centered on sewing and dolls.
For now, I have finished these pages.
Please be patient. ❤️
