Help me make a Kirin character for TEF?

Thes's picture
I'm making a Kirin character for TEF and for other roleplay uses. But I need some help with a REFERENCE. I would LOVE it if someone at least just did a Lineart of him for me.

He is currently unnamed..D:

I really want this guy to be creepy, scary and all-around gross. and gory

A rib poking out of his left side, jugular and guts hanging out, his chest ripped open just enough too see his heart beating, his legs nothing but bone up to his elbow/thigh, his spine will show somewhat between his hips. His tail will be crooked.

(Think of a Zombie, or your worst-nightmare?)



Thanks to Morti below for this headshot. <3 (His mane goes all the way down to his back and stops mid-way.)
The perfect reference for his head. <3

He can be any natural color, fur-wise,... night-black with highlighted stripes... His scales are going to be a highlighted black, his hair/mane the same as his scales. (highlighted so that they show in the..well..light)

Body-wise;
He's going to look like a severely-starved horse, as Kirins have horse-bodies. Feel free to make him more deer-like, which is techinically what I am aiming for. <3 But it doesn't matter either way. He'll look absolutely like the 'walking dead' pretty much.

His tail has a lot longer fluff than the kirins' in the picture. It goes down to his ankles. <3

As for his horns;
Personally, I want my kirin to have caribou/elk-shaped antlers, two of them, along with the uni-horn in the middle of his forehead. The antlers would be black, while the uni-horn would be ivory with a black tip. They will have bones and small animal skulls hanging off them as ornaments.

If you don't know what a Kirin is, look here;

So I do not quite understand

So I do not quite understand what you are asking. Do you want an image or do you want someone to help you with a bio?

I'm interested in the idea of a zombie Kirin but there are parts of this design that are a bit over the top for me, but if you think you can make it work, go for it. Maybe if you drew a reference first, to help people visualize what you mean there would be more offers?

:3 It definitely gets him started, thats for sure. I love it! Although his esophagus should actually be drooping out of his neck . x3 lol. But thats okay. <3 I'm fawning over this sketch...No pun intended. <3

edit;

..Screw my sayings before..that..mane is..just..delicious..<3

I would draw this guy myself, but I just can't get him right. I just can't draw guts and his..heart..and organs..and..blood...I love it yeah, but i can't draw it. xD!

I'd really appreciate if someone just did a lineart for him. :3

If you felt like it, I'd love if you sketched my Ma, but it really isn't necessary! ^^ I haven't been doing too much art lately because of school, but it's nice to have something to work on in the evenings!
