Well... this is what happens when social studies becomes incredibly boring. Which is sad, because we're learning about a whole bunch of different wars... but thats off topic as is. Anywho, this is a more gothic take on the unicorn, ie, what they're supposed to look like as described way back when. The head (ish) of a goat, the body of a horse, the mane and tail of a lion and cloven hooves, OH and a beard :) You can't go wrong with beards. I quite like the effect, some people are calling it almost wood cut, that makes me happy. Done in pens.

ahh, it looks sad, as if the vines are entangeling the unicorn. The eyes really cool, and the way the plant wraps around it.

I LOVE IT!!! I've done a little bit of study on unicorns. If you want to draw a unicorn accurately, it will depend on what period of time you want it to be from and what culture. You drew this one perfectly according to your reference of unicorns in Europe during midieval times. Great job! I wish me social studies sketches came out half this good...

What an awesome picture, it looks ready to just walk off the edge of the background. The movement and fur texture are wonderful.

Just amazing. Reminds me somewhat of "the Last Unicorn" for some reason. . .

I absolutely love your style, it's slightly creepy and mysterious without overdoing it. The crosshatching is wonderfully done, rock on!
