The next demon of the The Ars Goetia.



Naberius, also known as Cerberus, Nabbers or Nebiros.

He is the most valiant of the Marquis of Hell and has 19 legions under his command. He bestows cunning in all arts and sciences, especially in rhetoric. He also restores lost honors.

Nabbers typically appears as a three headed dog, raven or less so as a black crane. I tried to incorporate a little bit of each of the descriptions and came up with this bird Cerberus.



As I am doing these I am noticing they are becoming more "high fantasy" in terms of aesthetic, colors, design and less "horror" or Macabre.



I wonder what you all think of that? Do we like the fantasy edge or should I be leaning more towards the horrific visual language. It's a balancing act in order to keep somewhat true to the original depictions which are fantasy leaning. Love to hear your thoughts.
