Turning once again to the talent on this site, to ask if anyone would be interested in drawing Sionnach- and his many 'spirits' more specifcally. I'm a poor drawer, and I'd love to see what someone else can do with him! Its always cool to view your ideas brought to life by another person. Anyone interested?

I hate to mooch, and I can't draw, so the best thing I can come up with to return the favor is to make you something! If you like this idea let me know. I'll refer you to a post I made before Christmas as an idea of what I can make for you: Shameless plug! Beaded bracelets and earrings, leather pouches(beaded and non), dreamcatchers, necklaces, etc. If there's something else you want, or a certain thing made differently, let me know. I can also get teeth, claws, legal feathers from birds other than parrots/crows and beautiful, realistic fake eagle/hawk feathers. I can put an antler tip on anything. Its the least I can do after people take the time to do something for me.



For reference to Sionnach's other personalities and inspiration for them, you can always see their bio, linked in my sig. This is what I've come up with in my head for their appearances, and its open to change and interpretation as you see them.

Sionnach- as is, more or less; both Shaku and Unplugged have taken to drawing Sionnach prior to this post, but if anyone else wants to, feel free!

Bairn- fawn, no mask, smaller or no antlers, shy, childlike(happy, innocent) appearance

The buck- whole set as-is, brighter/shinier pelt, brimming with confidence, pride and happiness, very playful looking

Howl- interpret however you want. Even I don't know how to. The basic message is it has no gender, doesn't believe it is a deer(and isn't sure what it actually is), and is completely insane. Sticking with a deer shape might be the easiest, but if you can think of another, better way to depict it, go ahead

Old Stag- Very large, much bigger than Sionnach actually is, mask optional, much darker pelt, ragged fur, large broken antlers, only a few candles left burning, angry, violent, suspicious.



Thanks to anyone who helps out! Laughing out loud You all get internet-cookies and ponies.

I haven't forgotten about Bairn! The Noh pelt is just proving surprisingly difficult to color. I'll try to post him very soon! ^-^

OOOP I haven't looked in this

OOOP I haven't looked in this direction for awhile. o_O I'm sorry if it seemed like I was ignoring the art! Aghhh.

Anjali, that is beautiful! Thank you so much for taking the time to make that. It is perfect for Bairn(and omg buttfloooof. heeee). and Kittyo8, very lovely as well! ^______^ The profile is nice. Thanks so much. I'm really excited to see Howl now!

Let me know if you'd like something in return from me.
Anjali's picture

Yes, buttfloof! And

Yes, buttfloof! And tailfloof. And chestfloof, and earfloof. I draw a lot of floof, apparently. Sticking out tongue

You make so much cool stuff, it's really awesome of you to offer it. I'd hate to ask for something if it was too much trouble for you. And art is meant to be shared and given away~ <3

Yesssss. So much floof!! That

Yesssss. So much floof!! That fawn is a giant fuzzball xD As fawns should be! heeeee

Art is meant to be shared and given away! I like to share my own type of art with others as they share theirs with me. That's the way I think of it ^__^

That's awesome! Laughing out loud:D:D Love the way you made the pelt and the mask, especially. Let me know if youd like anything in return from me!

I think I'm going to work on the Old Stag next...I have a really good idea idea of what he would look like, but I hope I can actually draw him how he appears in my head! Laughing out loud

D'aww I wish I could draw XD.

D'aww I wish I could draw XD. I'm always a fan of handmade stuff like what you described.
bigcrow's picture

Anjali- Awww, that's awesome.

Anjali- Awww, that's awesome. But you don't have to... I might not be sticking around on the forums much longer as is... I'll be in the game, just probably not here. So unless you'd just like something to do, you don't have to ^____^ And about the bracelet... all the antler tips I have are really big- like 3+ inches, so I'm gonna give you a regular bracelet and matching necklace with the tip on it. Is that okay? Sorry I'm taking so long to do it, I've been all kinds of ridiculously unmotivated.

Quad- I'm sure you can draw! I think I'm awful, but in reality I'm pretty decent, so who knows! ^___^ Maybe we can trade handmade stuff one day, TEF-related or not. I can make pouches with deer antlers on them, and necklaces, etc. I also recently made a necklace with wolf teeth, and have a few more left... is very cool, and might be fitting for you x) *has ego*
quadraptor's picture

Haha sure! I'm pretty good

Haha sure! I'm pretty good at making necklaces. And no, my drawing IS really terrible. Examples: x x x

Let me know, doing a trade of handmade stuff would be fun!

Quad, those are adorable.

Quad, those are adorable. Especially that angelic Xbox. xD *makes a similar picture for her Nintendo DS*

Bigcrow: Aw, thank you, that's perfectly fine. Sorry to hear you're probably not sticking around...I do hope Anjali gets to meet your deer sometime, and we'll keep "listening" for him in the Forest. Smiling

And as for the drawing, it's totally fine too. I need the practice, and I enjoy doing it. Telling me not to draw something is like telling me not to breathe that air over there. Laughing out loud

Plus, I can always email it, if you'd still like to see it.

XD I drew that the day my Xbox got the 'red ring of death'. I had to order a 'coffin' for it to send to Microsoft to get repaired. It took roughly a month to get it back, but Microsoft's customer service is pretty amazing. They sent me a card with Xbox Live Gold for I think 3 months.

Wow, that's nice! My brother

Wow, that's nice! My brother and I have this PS2 that is years and years old...it still works fine. But it doesn't like to play "blue discs," so you have to stick some tape on them in a certain way, and they play beautifully. xD No idea why that works, but it does. I love technology.

Quad- You liiiie. You're very

Quad- You liiiie. You're very good! If you keep drawing you'll be great. I love the dead xbox, bahahaha! And wow, you really are talented at jewelry. You put me to shame xD I just put beads on a cord... you make art. It would be great to trade! Would you like something specific, or just a surprise? x)

Anjali- I know, I can be the same way with different things. And now that I'm starting to get back into drawing, I feel much the same about that, too- art becomes a part of you. I'd love to see it, definitely ^___^ Whether you post it here or just email, either way. Thank you!
quadraptor's picture

Surprise me, but something

Surprise me, but something with the wolf fangs and/or deer antler tips would be amazing. I wish I had access to supplies like that, but since I live in the city I'm limited to store-bought stuff. Do you want anything specific for yours (any colors you like in particular) or do you like surprises too?

Here's a few more examples of my necklaces:

Here's an Old Stag for you. Smiling
I tried to make his mask and antlers look a bit beat-up and broken, and his fur look ragged. I think it turned out allright!
