Mula Sem Cabeça, lovecraftian approach

I'm sharing with you the first creature concept of my personal project: Brazilian Horror Creatures Reimagined.

A Mula Sem Cabeça is one of the most famous creatures in brazilian folklore! The best-known version of the legend states that any woman who had an affair with a priest would be punished and turned into a mule with fire for a head every thursday night.
The story also says that once transformed, the creature shooting fire from its neck run through the woods and fields, trampling and tearing animals and people that cross its way.
