The compensating headdress

Mis's picture
I usually don't really post 'simple' drawings like this in a seperate post, but I kind of like it. So I hope you don't mind!

Verve sheds her antlers once a year, and I thought it'd be pretty to give her something to make up for the lack of antlers. She's not too happy about shedding them, but any excuse to craft something is a good excuse.

All those details, so delicious... *strokes those feathers*

Kohva: Ah really? That’s nice

Kohva:
Ah really? That’s nice to hear ^^ Thanks! Haha they’re based off of golden pheasant feathers, the middle ones I guess. They’re very small irl. BUT HEY. XD

Narina:
Thank you! Makes me excited to hear that. Her design Is growing rather dear to me, I’m glad she’s enjoyable!

Nopje:
Haha thanks! Glad I’m not a bother yet XDD I really should just remake my old art blog though, get to use that again instead of making new blogs..
But thank you a lot for the compliment ♥!

SnowSauria:
They were very interesting to draw! Or, try to draw haha! It’s fun to just google things and run into gems like these.

Moon_Blaggy:
Aww! Thanks, that is sweet of you ^^

Alisan:
Thanks! I’m glad you do, I enjoy drawing her a lot too ^^

Heee, I love this. It's wonderfully tribal and exotic looking. Those feathers are perfect, black red and gold are so Verve's colors.

Orinocoflow: Everything gets

Orinocoflow:
Everything gets easier when you take some inspiration from real life instead of trying to make it all up! Goes for a lot of things, I guess Eye Thank you!

Sight:
I had to go with them with those red tips. Verve’s easy to decorate with a lot of colors.. But I think red still kind of is her. XD Thanks ^^

Rikkachan:
Haha glad it lives up it’s expectations! Thanks ^^ She’d be glad to hear that haha!

Starling:
They’re pretty huh! Based on existing feathers, I find it really helps if you take some references from things in nature. I wouldn’t have been able to come up with them myself XD

Parrot:
HAHAHA ohgod. TO WHO. She should’ve been a buck in the rut.
But thanks XDD yeah, I thought her forehead looked a little empty, it’s added in thanks to you now! Haha but it was fun to do, and I like the owl skull. Even if it’s maaaybe not super practical.

Haha yeah that probably is my

Haha yeah that probably is my main problem...I don't look up references as much as I should (trying to remedy that as of late though. :3)

Mm.. I love the fashion. And

Mm.. I love the fashion.
And that long, slender neck.

Ohh, I'm sad you call this simple.
This would take me so long I probably would end up abandoning the project.

Great work.

Thanks Ravynn &hearts; Oh

Thanks Ravynn ♥

Oh that’s not why I call it simple really.. Mainly because there’s no composition, or background, and a lot of things I didn’t bother to shade haha! I don’t think it’s a complete piece. But I liked it anyway.
Glad you like it too!

this is so beautiful omg

this is so beautiful omg dlskfjsadkljfskl

When I first read the title I

When I first read the title I was a little worried (don't ask me why because I had no reason to) but now I see how beautiful this is! Those feathers are so lovely and I'm trying to think of what bird the black and gold feathers are from..

Verve is a beautiful character. Whenever I see anything about her, it makes me happy that she's active and very much holds a presence in the community and culture of the Forest c:

Shim: Aww haha thank you so

Shim:
Aww haha thank you so much! She's always fun to design things for ♥ I'm glad it's liked!

Silensia:
You think? Thanks ^^" It's difficult at some point to keep coming up with new things, but it's a fun challenge and it's nice to sometimes just quickly draw something up.

Fish:
HAHA aw I was gonna ask why. They're from the golden pheasant. Except, well, huge. Since the real feathers are pretty small, hehe. Gotta have your own twist to things riight.
Thank you so much ^^ She seems to be here to stay, she keeps inspiring me and I keep hoping others like it too. I'm really flattered you think she has a place here!
