Phobias

This week's pieces were inspired by some phobias.

Ophidiophobia

The fear of snakes, it's also the fear of their venom or the danger that this could involve. This character was developed in a lab. When an experiment that involved the subject and a snake, went wrong, this mutated guy lost his hands that were replace with 2 gigantic heads of snakes, and his feet that where substitute by a snakes tail. After the accident he escaped and start living in a swamp, where he became a predator, the only human characteristic that he possesses now is part of his face.

Spectrophobia

The fear of mirrors or of a broken mirror. People with this phobia can also be afraid of the idea of something coming out of the mirror or seeing something in the mirror besides their own reflection. This is also the fear of being watched from the mirror. The background of this character is: This women came out of a creepy and abandoned mirror house where she was murdered. No one ever found her body, but years later people reopened the house since then she started to attack innocent people because she wanted revenge for what people did to her. Her upper body is made out of broken mirrors, and some of the mirrors have hands sticking out of them. She also has a mask made out of mirrors as well with just one eye showing.

Pupaphobia

The fear of puppets and their unnatural movements. The signs on his chest and stomach symbolize the word puppet. Before being a puppet this man was a comedian at children's parties, but he got obsessed with the art of puppetry, so he decided to be his own puppet. Everybody was afraid of him. He was so frustrated that in an act of revenge, he started to transform everyone that was afraid of him into puppets. Ever since then he hides in any place where people perform their art. He also attacks any artist who doesn't perform a puppetry act.
