If you've got a epic FB/TT, a hilarious one or just want to see how it would look like, post a description and anything else you'd like to see in the artwork here.
For Example:
"Aril was a forgotten beast. It was the only one of its kind. A towering skinless cobra. It has wings and it has a gaunt appearance.
 Beware its poisonous bite. Aril was associated with water, jealousy, and caverns."
^{bonus points if you know where that came from}
I'd like to have him pictured when he was struck down by an axedwarf. scratch that, I'm not DarkerDark
I'll post the drawings every week on Saturday ^{might be at night}.

You should play in the forgotten beast art contest thread in the community games subforum.

Nah, I was looking for something along the lines of this:

but with FBs and TTs instead of combat logs and drawings instead of narration

I like it. Here's a fairly run-of-the mill beast which I would think would be fun to draw:

The Forgotten Beast Oxut has come! A gigantic feathered snail. It has wings and it squirms and fidgets. Its heliotrope feathers are fluffed-out. Beware its webs!

Taken down by a hail of =goblin bone bolts=.

[Xantalos]

Hem.
PTW, this looks interesting.

Armok, but I wish I had the time to participate in that some more. Especially since I was just attacked by a werechinchilla with glowing violet eyes in my current fortress.  Apparently a good smack to the head with a willow shield is enough to turn them back into humans, allowing the lone militia commander to stab it in the leg, then the head.  Three hit kill.

WTF...

... Great, I'll start right now!

Osush Hatchetclashed
A gigantic lizard with lidless eyes!  It has large mandibles and appears emaciated.  Its midnight blue scales are large.  Beware its webs!

[Melzer]

OK, already got Oxut pretty easy actually  . I'll start working on Osush.

Even the wikipedia article sounds like a DF FB description:

"It is silvery grey on its dorsal side and dark and pale blue ventrally. It has dark blue stripes on its head. It has a tapering body which is flattened, and has six appendages which branch out into rayed, finger-like cerata."

1st round
 Oxut. Not quite feathered. Not quite winged.

Osush

Hope it's not too bad for the first time. I think the lizard came out better.

[Thuellai]

I like 'em.  Osush is the perfect mix of crocodile, lizard, and spider to look really goddamn weird.
