I browsed a lot of pictures and pages to find information on the asian unicorn. Finally I came to the conclusion that there are hundreds of different description of the animal. I chose one that described him as a cross between a horse and a dragon, with one backward horn, covered in shiny fishlike scales.
Done in black ink and watercolors.

If you have any ideas for other mythical horses I've not done yet please let me know!

Hey there, love your horsies! Wish I could draw them at least half as well, then I could call myself an artist. Anyway...what does it say on the bridge behind the kirin? I studied Japanese for 8 years so I should know my kanji but for some reason I can’t translate your kanji. Maybe it’s been too long since I last used my Japanese...

Try drawing a nightmare; a black horse filled with rage, hate and anger. They have a horn, mane and tail of fire, for they are unicorns in a twisted hateful way. great job on your other pieces!!

I’ve got an idea for another mythical horse, a bicorn. It’s really just a unicorn with two horns. Or you could do a unipeg, a cross between a pegasus and unicorn.
