I seriously just cannot stand to look at this anylonger. I went through so many ideas. Started off in a typical forest, then I remembered "Hey Anna you can't draw normal trees."
So I changed it to a autumn birch forest. Not much of an improvement. I wanted to make the deer white, but I thought it would blend in too much with an already light background. I wanted to make him have charms and look like a mystic or something, but I just can't pull myself to have done that.
Also, the deer is based on a Red Deer, not a White tail. Since Reds are my favorite. I like stylized antlers too, I guess. Totally not an excuse for the fact antlers are a bitch to draw.
More or less, this was just to practice drawing not half shitted backgrounds, wow did I fail at my goal there.

I will never be half as good as you... dreyacira [Profile] 2012/5/16 - 6:6:41 I saw this in escrow yesterday and I showed it to my friend sitting next to me because I just thought it was so pretty. It's lovely to see it finished. I can definitely tell he's a red deer, you did a great job with him. I love the fur on his neck. The birch forest is lovely, you did a really great job with the tree trunks, and the beautiful light coming down through the leaves. mockingbird [Profile] 2012/5/16 - 10:29:10 0.0 it's just so shimmery and beautiful!! the stag is standing in such a regal way and the forest is so magical and mysterious! I cannot believe you don't like this piece of artwork! its really true that you are your biggest critic!! kenderkat [Profile] 2012/5/16 - 12:45:33 Watchoo talkin bout Xy.
This is fantastic. Better than I could ever hope to be.
The texture on his neck is epic, the shading is amazing, and the colors are beautiful. <3
