Manananggal Statue

In the Philippines, there are a race of shape-shifting creatures known as the aswang, but no aswang is more feared than the manananggal.

During the day, it appears as an exquisitely beautiful human female. At night, it anchors itself to the ground by forming tree-like roots, use its legs together, sprouts wings, rip its torso from its base, and takes to the air looking for infants of fetuses to feed upon, thereby earning the alternate name - The Baby-Eater.

3D resin printed and hand-painted, the manananggal is supported by a 1/2 inch clear acrylic rod. Base is over a foot in diameter, wing span approx. 2 feet across and stands over 27 inches tall.
