This month's creature is the Qilin and Kirin. I have already done a Kirin so i did the Qilin even though they sort of one and the same lol. Qilin has head of a dragon, skin and scales of a fish, lion's tail, oxen feet and antler's of a deer.
It is also known as the chinese unicorn or a giraffe-it meant different thing depending on what dynasty you were in.
They are able to walk on grass without trampling a single blade and do not eat flesh.


Done for wetcanvas's monthly creature feature.

Actually A qilin is a chinese unicorn and is known to be one of the purest nicest creatures, it walks so carefully so not to break any grass it walks over and it eats nothing but foliage that has already died....you are sadly wrong with your information

:-) Becky Camfield replies: "XD i know what a qilin is...i have somehow written the description for another drawing on this page o.O how perculiar. I didn’t notice until you commented XD will go correct it, feel silly now lol"
