Bring your boogeyman and unicorns to life for this week's Mashable Vine Challenge. We want you to animate the swoops, chases, claws and roars of your favorite fantasy creatures.

You can sculpt your creatures using clay, or sketch them on paper and then morph them into 3D. Try painting legendary beasts from literature — the double-headed sea monsters and serpents, the centaurs and dragons. Or feel free to pull a Frankenstein and invent your own monster. It can be as big as a skyscraper or small enough to hide under a bed.

We used paper cutouts and plastic toys to make our Vine video, below.

Mashable's visual storytelling team will be visiting FIT School of Art & Design's Illustration Mentor & Special Projects class this week to give a tutorial on stop-motion animation. Share your creation by Tuesday, April 1 at 9 a.m. ET, using the hashtag #CreatureCrawl, for a chance to be featured in a follow-up post.
