Mara: Moleskine Ref

Description

It turns out that this deviation did not show up in most people's inboxes. I'm so proud of myself, oh boy, I never thought I'd have my very own dA glitch! Word on the street was a fair amount of people got hit by similar issues this weekend while submitting, and there was the server error on top of that. Ah well.

My last submission was over a week ago... and then I pretty much disappeared. Thought no one would notice, I guess I was wrong. :XD: No... I was right, after all. Hmph.

Jin (my kirin character) has received so much love in comparison to poor Mara that I figured she could use some more ink sketches in my Moleskine sketchbook. Haven't quite got around to painting her yet, but I suppose I'll have to at some point. :lol:

I know, her hair is absolutely ridiculous, but I couldn't help myself. I'm not sure how well it works; design-wise she doesn't seem overly unique, despite how I keep trying to create my own variation on the unicorn. :shrug: She's not supposed to be overly equine in terms of anatomy... there is a bit of cervine in there. And other nonsense. I can tell you one thing, though: Those ears aren't going anywhere.

As far as color: I've imagined her to be white with a dark auburn mane and tail, with bluish green eyes. I've yet to see what this would look like painted. (Meaning, that might change.)

Specs: Non-waterproof sepia ink in a Moleskine. (nib used: Hunt 108) Size: A4 (spread)

Questions, critiques, comments, etc. are welcome.
