Over the past week I've gotten into this games called Until Dawn; it's a beautiful motion captured horror video games for the ps4. One of the aspects of the game was these creatures called wendigo's. I thought they were made up for the story plot but I was surprised to find there's multiple renditions of the wendigo as it actually comes from Native American folk tales. I saw so many different renditions of wendigo's that a thought a cool Halloween project was to make my own version of what one might look like.
The actual legend of a Wendigo is that a person is possessed by an evil spirit after they revert to cannabilism to survive. By eating another human they slowly turn into the monster known as the Wendigo which is described to be incredibly taller, taller than any human person, and very skinny almost (some say you can't even see them from the side). Other notable features are their long fingers and sharp shark like teeth.
