A dark red, monstrous, bony fish with jagged teeth in an ink-and-watercolor style on parchment.

A high-quality fantasy bestiary illustration of the Anvilfish — a slow-moving, deep-sea predator. It is dark red in color, with a bony, anvil-shaped head and jagged, protruding teeth. Its body is lean and mostly bone, with thin, leathery fins and very little flesh. The skull looks heavy and reinforced, giving it a hammer-like silhouette. The fish’s ribs and backbone are visible beneath the skin, suggesting their flexible, weapon-grade nature. The image should be presented as a well-rendered ink-and-watercolor drawing on parchment, in the style of Dungeons & Dragons 5e Monster Manual illustrations — slightly stylized but naturalistic enough to feel like a field journal sketch of a fantastical deep-sea creature. Avoid modern photo-realism; focus on a drawn, painterly fantasy bestiary look. See more
