SciFi and Fantasy Art Green Kirin by Erin Stevenson O´Connor


	The final version. The background ended up flatter than I would have liked, but at least I added one. Hehe. I wore down nearly two-thirds of my aquamarine Prismacolor pencil on that sky. June 2001. Black ink and Prismacolors on Canson drawing paper.

31 Aug 2001	Gillian Meredith	Loading... =) I love it! The blue looks so neat! And his legs are so slender...I have no idea why I like them so much. =P Weeeeeeee!!
3 Sep 2001	T-Byrd	Loading... Could anyone explain to me in some extent what's a kirin? Wait, I'll ask Tralfy. Nice pic, seems like one of the better ones.
6 Sep 2001	Stanton F. Fink	Loading... A kirin is a kind of scaled unicorn, said to resemble a deer with a hide of dazzling scales, and a single horn. They're also supposed to have huge, billowing manes. Your kirins keep reminding me of lung-ma... That is, lung-ma with equine heads.
27 Apr 2002	M. 'Mijka' Katsillis aka MiDNiGHT	Loading... I'm just dumbfoundedly shocked and amazed at the -blueness- of the sky and the fact that anyone would sit there and draw it in rather than flood-fill in photoshop
20 May 2002	Pixie	Loading... Good green kirin
17 Jun 2002	Erin	Loading... This reminds me of a plastic horse I own, at least in pose.... You don't happen to collect Breyers, do you? Anyway, I love the mane and tail, and great job on perspective! Erin Stevenson O'Connor replies: "I do indeed collect Breyers, or used to. The old description of this pic indicated that I drew this from one, as I did. It's a black unicorn, though I imagine other models were made from that form. "
3 Aug 2002	Sam weerawardane	Loading... Haha I used to collect Breyers too! Was wondering where I'd seen that pose before... great poses tend to stick in my mind. And it's my favourite colour too! clap clap Me likes.

23 Sep 2003	Rochelle 'Dragontrap' Michael	Loading... Very bold colors... I like it alot ^_^
13 May 2006	Garrett	Loading... It has to be the body of a deer or a lion for it to be Kirin. Now it's just a scaly, green, flying unicorn. Erin Stevenson O'Connor replies: "Looks to me more like the head is lion-shaped, and body is a stylized deer shape. As it says in the description, I based this particular kirin on a horse model, so I would expect it to be more horselike than deerlike. I would also argue that the experts' interpretation is pretty horselike, too. Perhaps this or this would be more to your liking."
