Day One: Visibly Undead Barron Dépérir is usually flanked by a handful of attendants, two of which are pictured here. The Barron is far too fragile to vampire himself, hence his reliance on these doctor types
Day two: Futuristic This guy’s called Nosferobotu, I’m really pleased with how this design came out. this design began it’s life as a name and vague silhouette attached to a parody of dr. who villains, but I really enjoy the idea of a group of va
for day 3 I went with a design very  loosely based off the silent movie ‘The Bat’, about a devious killer in what would retroactively become an off brand batman costume.
Day 4: Demon It’s maybe worth saying this ones super not to scale with the other’s I’ve done so far, he’s a little guy
DAY 2 BONUS(!): IN GLORIOUS TECHNICOLOR I’m doing these in black and white, but I wanted to do this guy in color for fun. Nosferobotu is largely a riff on classic dr who and it’s contemporaries, so I wanted to do both the ways it can go when thos
Day 5 (I know):  Lycanthropic It’s ya girl Claudia! she’s got two big things going on with her right now: A real unfortunate combination of medical complications, and this thing where if she stops breathing she changes almost instantly into
Day 6: Aquatic The Niebla Islands Mermaid latches on to a host and over  the course of two or three months drains them of every fluid, leaving a papery corpse. a fun aside, the hosts aren’t aware this is happening.
Day 7: Clown It’s Birthdays the Clown, your Fun-time Favorite Friend!™
Day 8: monstrous Viscount Catacomb rules the hordes of feral children roaming the undercity. they say all children will answer to his song. The Viscount is an ancient thing hiding from the sun surrounded by thralls, so I’m at about 80% that I
Day 9: plant I was going for an ‘upsetting fairy magic’ feel on this one.
Day 10: classic Here’s Julian Norville-August Wentworth the Third. He’s a Dracula.
Day 11: Reptile so a lot of these so far have come off as at least a one off villain or a level boss, not this guy though. no way he’s self employed. clearly a goon or henchman of some kind
Day 12: nature I’ve already done a rabbid woods vampire so here’s a fancy woods vampire
Day 13: uncanny Valley a nosferatu. sort of a ‘hairless cat’ thing 
Day 14(?): Alien BEHOLD!! CARNATE THE UNDIEING- A BEING FROM THE EDGE OF SPACE AND THE EDGE OF TIME-APROACHES!! BUT WHO IS HE?? BUT WHAT  IS HE?? SOON HIS DARK MACHINATIONS WILL UNFOLD, BUT HOW?? AND WHY?? I thought it would be fun to tr
Day 15: Animal Alexandria is the keeper of the secret library, she’s one of the more timid vamps I’ve done so far. As a fun bit tomorrow’s entry,  Day 16: Elementa l is also her, but different.
Day 16: Elemental hey look, It’s Alexandria again! don’t let that smile fool you, she has literally never been more upset.
Day 17: Sexy I thought it’d be funny if there was your standard fancy vampire, and one time you see them at like, eight AM on a tuesday and they’re not at all put together, sooo that’s what I did
Day 18: Disguised And we’re back! He has the combined powers of a vampire and professional wrestling.
Day 19: chupacabra Ugh, look at this awful little spiney man. put a shirt on, guy
Day 20: Artificial Friends, you need an undead army. you know you do. But zombies are overplayed and mummies are expensive. you want vampires. Now I hear your concerns, maybe you don’t have the resources or manpower for a horde of vampires. Well
Day 21: Vegetarian Professor Langstrom Everett Mills was renowned for his methods in the temperance movement before making the somewhat inexplicable jump to mysticism. He wrote extensively about vampirism, drawing heavy parallels between those af
Day 22: bizarre It’s ‘Vlad Tepitch’ the mascot for the Kansas City Impalers! It’s worth noting that ‘the Kansas city Impalers’ is not a real sports team. ‘Vlad Tepitch’ has a jumbotron based thrall. those fangs are foam rubber and felt, but
Bonus vamp!: a soft boy the origin of this vampire design is I misread a prompt and than very loosely did something that doesn’t really match that fake prompt so all around a misfire, this one.
Day 23: Penanggalan I’ve been putting blurbs under these, but I don’t have much to say here. she’s got a small intestine for an arm. 
Day 24: Silly This is T. Racula, the title character from a pitch for a syfy channel style ‘dumb high concept monster movie’ that is 90% a joke, but that I would absolutely write. if you are at all curious, it’d go as close to the novel Bram Sto
Day 25: Insectoid An assassin bug stabs it’s specialized mouthparts into the bodies of it’s prey, and pumps them full of stomach acid, than slurps up the noxious slurry of organs and bile. Mr. Smoothie, owner and purveyor of the seventeen ‘Mr. S
Day 26: Puppet evil puppets are my jam, and I may go back and do that, but I thought it’d be fun to try to do like an imprinting type thing like when people are working with animals? this one builds off of three earlier vampires instead of being
Day 27: Wizard I was of two minds of how I wanted to do this, so I did ‘em both. which took longer than a day. but oh well. anyway, the point is wizards are great
Day 28: Mutant hey look, it’s most of my design instincts for ‘vampire monster’ at once! if they were wearing a victorian gentleman’s hat, it would be all of them.  maybe, this is what you get if those gelatinous synthetic vampires try to t
Day 29: Abstract so for abstract, I wanted to do a ‘dead people become pretty monsters that drain life from the living’ in as streamlined a way as possible. so what that ended up bei9ng is a living crystal hivemind that is constantly sapping stre
Day 30(!): Yara-Ma-Yha-Who what a gross monster, it’s like if a monkey was a pitcher plant. anyway, it’s maybe worth pointing out that even though I’m doing these in black and white, this guy’d be bright red in color.
