Curupira and Saci

A personal project I'm developing about Brazilian folklore, the first two characters I drew, Saci Pererê and Curupira.
The legend of Curipira tells of a mythical being protector of the forest who turned against those who entered the forest to cut down trees or hunt animals.
And the legend of the saci emerges as a playful figure, who makes fun of animals and people, making small pranks that create domestic difficulties, or scaring night travelers with his whistles – quite high-pitched and impossible to locate. This is how he braids the animals' hair, after making them tired with running around; it interferes with the cooks' work, causing them to burn the food, or even, putting salt in the sugar containers or vice versa; or travelers getting lost on the roads.
