And not just any graveyard....In my mind unicorns just like elephants have a ritual of death. They have their sacred grounds where they choose to be at the last moments of their lives.

This graveyard is not just for unicorns, though. Other mythical horned creatures come there too. The skull laying over there is from a creature called Mammodox, which is more or less a crossing between a rhino and a mammoth. (I'm working om more detailed of that species).

It's wonderful although the horn looks a little curved. But maybe that's just me! Good job anyway, I couldn't draw it!

This is an awfully healthy looking unicorn to be in the graveyard. My guess is either:

a: THere's nothing physically wrong with him, but it's his time. Or...

b: He's just there to pay his respects.

I like how the mammodox's horn is broken off, seems kind of symbolic cuz horned mystical creature's lives stem from their horns. Great job!

Impressive. Kudos for artistic license.

Of course, (boring proffessorial tone) the Unicorn is too noble a creature to mire in death and corruption, being constituted, exclusively of scales of light and volatile humours.... etc.

But, art, and artists, can all. And awe. Truly.

sorry to break it too you but elephants dont have graveyards. You have been obviously watching The Lion King too much!

To the person above: elephantes DO have graveyards and elepahntes DO have death rituals... what if you made some research before commenting?
I really like the idea of this pic, it's great and so is the pic itself.
