Artist's Comments

did you know there was a time where virtually all I drew was animals? :B I have to apologize to my watchers who are so good with animals and animal antomy, 'cause none of the pictures of deer I found were of the right pose so I had to kinda wing this one.

anyway, word on the street is I have a new character! this is Liadhan as a child with her .. uh .. mother. I haven't exactly worked it out. That's my take on a celestial deer. some notes on that:

- I know female deer don't have antlers. but if you're going to basically be a deer-god, who said you couldn't? :p
- I researched magical deer in mythology and I found some references to deer with five antlers .. I tried that at first but the head just looked too overloaded.
- referring somewhat to a unicorn in this anatomy, too, what with the third horn and the (traditonally) unicorn-style tail.

I was gonna do something with moss or flowers growing on the antlers or something but I think I'm happy with it as it stands.

I may be moving this to scraps soon, considering this drawing was kinda fast.

IT'S ALL WRONG!

Okay, not really. I do like the three antler thing with the single one coming out of the front of her head. :D I've only seen the girl in action once and it was pretty scary! X3

I love the gold light. It's so soft and bright. All you've been doing lately is dark drawings with lots of shadows, so this is really refreshing!!

I can say one thing.

Better than Bambi. <3333333

Wow... the drawing is very light and ... pleasant. :)I don't think that you should work more on the background. Also, the mother-deer looks all right, natural even with the ultra-antlers. ;) Though I think that female deer have some very little antlers... Anyhow, the tail also fits. And the expression of Liadhan is priceless. Is there a story that goes with this?
:icondadward:
Really inspirational work! I love the light colors and the over serience mood.

This is so pretty! I love that kid, and that "deerkin". So pretty... Love how you made the fur; it looks real! The light in this scene is amazing as well. I think the tail is just a little, well... I don't, off? It looks too short and thick for the body. And the furry part on the tail looks a little flat; should be more puffy, if you know what I mean. I do love its eye though. It looks so fantasy-ish, really, from a god. (:

Liadhan is also very cute! I so love those little horns and that hairdo. She looks such a rascal, although, so innocent. Very nice.

Hope you're not offended by the (attemptive to) constructive comment at the "deerkin". Sorry if you didn't want comment of this kind. ^^;
