I really like the musculature, and that does not look like an easy angle to work on either. I like the wavy mane and tail too. Are you going to finish it, now that we all want to see what you're plotting?

I don't think I'll do more to the drawing, but I always intended it to be a study for a painting. Thanks so much. I really love playing with muscles and bones...and hair of all kinds, too for that matter

Taken out of context, that sounds a little creepy

I liked doodling muscles, could never get the hang of hair!

Oh, gee, it does indeed. Better call the FBI I might be wanted. oh, gee.......I always think of hair as flowing like water and music and ribbons and scarves on the air.

Really lovely, you definitely have an old-master's look to this piece! I love the look of emotion in the unicorn's eye as well! I just love all the soft, pretty details!

Good job with the shading too.

Abosultely stunning, glad to see you can make a unicorn thats not scrawny like the rest of DA (they are suposed to be strong after all but the rest od DA misses that). anyway, lover the detail in teh muscles and fur/hair. Only thing i see is there is no clear definition on whether his legs have stockings or are actually the same color as his body, its really hard to tell.

ArtbySandiJohnson In reply to RipItUpGenki [2009-01-21 13:09:41 +0000 UTC]

thanks! I don't remember about stocking, but it does look like his legs could be white to the hocks. It had sat in the drawing book, being moved around and lost some of it's clarity,but I might be able to sharpen it up a bit and make those legs look whiter.

I really like how the unicorn's head is constructed. It's not just a "horse with a horn"; it looks different, and I think that's what makes it so great to look at. You are a very good artist!

ArtbySandiJohnson In reply to irathray [2009-01-21 13:10:45 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, so much. Yep, I want my unicorns to not look like horses with horns. However, I have done some work for other people who do want their unicorns they pay me for to look that way, sooooo..........but those aren't really my unicorns.

Hah, that's true; you create what the customer wants (but I like your idea of a unicorn better, I think).

musicbox777 [2009-01-21 01:14:06 +0000 UTC]

This is very good, I think. It is a good example of how good a peice of art can be without color.

I think you did a good job of using shading where appropriate and keeping the focus on the unicorn while still keeping the background in mind.

The unicorn is like the ones of yore; not just a horse with a horn on the middle of it's forehead. You have paid very good attention to detail.

I like this alot. =]

The shading, pose, and background are all wonderfully done. The unicorn's expression is also somehow touching.
