Description
This was also drawn yesterday, I just wanted to colour it so I left it out of my big sketchdump.
I forgot the horn on the original sketch, so I had to imitate the look of a pencil sketch on SAI to fix it o-o;
Yesterday, I also found out these Changelings are most likely also based on Fairies. Before Shakespeare wrote fairies as nice creatures in his plays, fairies were considered evil and they were feared... to quote a sheet I have... "Stories were told about how fairies stole human children in the middle of the night and substituted for them their own deformed and grotesque offspring. Such substitutions were called "changelings"..."
Interesting
Anyway, this is more my take on a changeling. I had no references so some things may be off, but I think it's fine.

I really love this. I know it’s an old work, but the exaggeration of the teeth works so well, and funnily enough it ended up looking a lot like what the show eventually showed us with changelings hissing.
