Oddly compelling custom order.
Well, sometimes I get a custom order that kinda makes me tilt my head to one side and say "Huh?". I have to admit though, now that this one's done I think it's actually adorable. Based on my arm dragon design...a white arm peacock.
Here's the tail, which has to lay off to one side (obviously, that's the only way it could be wearable). She wanted it all white but I talked her into having a little color...'cause it needs it.
Here's a good profile of the head. I know the neck is too long. If I ever do another one I'll change the design a little.
And while I was out there taking these pictures, it started snowing again! WHY??? I'm so sick of these cold gray days. *sigh* At least all the snow that fell last week has melted...but just look at my poor daffodils. They were just about to bloom, and now they're all squashed-looking.
Poor things. The ones over by Guy, the garden griffen, seem to be faring slightly better. Probably because he watches out for them.
He has a certain dignity, even when the snow is flying in his face.
I just got a BIG box of leather (two hides, which cost almost 300.00! Prices are going up), so I'll be starting that Kirin soon. I'm going to do two different designs, just to see which works better. I want them to look like kirin, and not unicorns, so it'll be tricky.

Re: WOW from Vegas... again!
I have a bazillion questions for you, so I better call. You must tell me everything! I can't believe Franco took you to Cypress...you lucky dog!
Re: DevArt. I'm really not the person to ask, as I don't have a site there. Purplerebecca (who I planned to rec to you anyway...my god that girl can draw & her style is PERFECT for storyboards), Moko-moko, and Rumdiculous all have DA sites and they could help you more than I. I DO know that plagiarism is something you have to be careful of, there. Be wary of what you put up (you might even want to watermark it...there are programs for that but I'm sure you know). DevArt runs a print shop too...something to be aware of. I'm pretty sure you can choose what to submit for prints.
Anyway, Becca, Rumi and Moko are all right here in the replies to this entry. Go tag 'em...I'm sure they'll be happy to help. :-)
