My first work here! Hope you like it!
It's my own interpretation of the fallen angel, Abaddon. Here is a short description, in case you aren't familiar with him:
"Abaddon comes to mean "place of destruction", or the realm of the dead, and is associated with Sheol. (Job 26:6; Proverbs 15:11)
Revelation 9:1-11 describes Abaddon as being the king of the bottomless pit locusts that resemble battle horses with crowned human faces, having womens' hair (denoting length), lions' teeth, locusts' wings, and the tail of a scorpion. It appears to have been St. John who first personified the term to stand for an angel."
In my version, he is a monster that fell from the skies, with thousands of eggs inside and outside his body, wich contains the destruction of mankind.
