(Crap) Dag body comparison

Iaurdagnire's picture


The pipsqueak next to what I can only presume is my half-assed attempt at Dag is Virgil. The average shoulder height of a Red Deer is 3+ feet, and Dag's is essentially almost double that (yet still 9 inches shorter than an Irish Elk).

EDIT: Added Kaoori's species... *dead*

Dag's species is basically a moose on steroids, so I've tried (and failed) at giving him a moosey-build. I've done the curve of his back wrong, the back legs are shit, the neck is short but any longer and he looks like a giraffe, fat shoulder, blahblahblah I can't draw bodies so this won't ever be finished (x

Thought I'd post it anyway to give people an idea of how big he is.

he's not any specific type of deer...his dad is just HUGE if you can even imagine a deer taller/bigger than he and Dag. xD he's similiar to like an Irish Elk but built like a ram.

Wish I could add Isa, but I'm too terrible with a mouse :c If anyone has free time on their hands, could they add a generic lil doe with tiny lil pointy 'antlers' between Kaoori's and Spyrre's heights? (So sorry if I spelled y'all's names wrong :<) *is lame excuse of an artist*

Anyone wanna add a "ruler" or something so it's easier to figure out how tall our deer are compared to the others if we want to add them in? |D;

AN IDEA. I HAVE IT. Okay,

AN IDEA. I HAVE IT.

Okay, what if I make a measured size chart, and start a blog where people can post transparent .png images like Morbid has just done (or jpgs if you can't save pngs) of their deer with their height that I can copy and paste into the chart and update it whenever someone submits their deer?

I think if people have white

I think if people have white tail deer characters, I would trust them to look up their size and pick a realistic one, so I don't think examples of "real" ones would need to be in there because tef has so many deer species! But if that doesn't happen, I will probably chuck in a real one because I'm very picky about realism (x

Deer are measured using their

Deer are measured using their shoulder height. If you look up deer on wiki that are your deer's species or are similar to your deer, you can pick an accurate shoulder height from their averages (most have averages for both doe and stag). This means that no-one will have to account for bendy necks and antlers (:

But I'll explain that when I make a separate blog for this... for now I need to scale a proper chart hehe.

I know what you guys have said here but I had to.
(....using TFO's image because I think it shows Kheiron's physics really good, with his shoulder height being smaller than Crybaby's but his big-ass neck making him appear taller than Virgil. xD hope that's okay, shoot me if it isn't)

I'll probably post if there's coming a new blog about this too. <3

Namely, either Dag, Viping, Saosin, or Ephire, as she's just a bit shorter than Virgil. xD
