2D tentacle creature

For my first assignment i had to create a creature, with the stipulation that it must have a minimum of four tentacle-like appendages.



First off i constructed a reference "mood board" of inspiration images, and then proceeded to sketch out several case studies.
I then proceeded to sketch out several creature designs, eventually settling for the one below.

Once loaded into photoshop, i used several layers to add base colours, shadows and highlights ontop of each other to reach the following stage (W.I.P).

The main thing i notice about this piece is composition, where the tentacle runs off the page, this is a problem i have noticed alot, where i misjudge the size of the page, drawing to large and running out of room.
