Poneh Vanner by Drakenhart

Wed, 12 Nov 2008 18:38:06 -0000

I had gotten back into Pony Island and decided that as cool as their Poneh's were, they didn't have many realitisc ones. (Point being its a fantasy game.) So I decided to try to make a series of MLP-esque Ponehs but based on true Breeds of horses. (Have I ever mentioned I'm a HUGE horse nut-job. Love em to pieces!) This is the Base start colors. I didn't want to go full black as that wouldn't show the lines. It is an experiment with my digital skills to be sure!

DKS Knotwork by Drakenhart

Mon, 07 Jul 2008 19:35:01 -0000

This is a set of knotwork pieces I did for my website. Wolf, Dragon, Raven. They are not 'traditional' either as far as zoo-morphic knotwork goes. The Raven is closet to be more of the 'Traditional style'.

This piece was for an art portfolio featuring tarot card symbolism in anthropomorphic form. This is the Empress. Every aspect of this card was throughly researched and designed. The Bunny is a character of a friend's Fursona, and was added as the main figure here as a Gift. This will be colored.

Aries, God of War, child of Fire. Here he summons and rallies his troops for battle against a great foe. Designed with as historically accurate outfit and weapon in mind, this is based on Sparta in the Greece-Roman style.

Fetal Dolphin 'Snowglobe' by Drakenhart

Sun, 01 Jun 2008 23:32:49 -0000

In honor of the first piece of these oddities, I continue the tradition of weird psychically controlled contraptions. I've done others, since that first AC, sleep-deprived, con-party-the-next-evening night. :) In fact I have "fetalized" other people's personas (with permission). They have also done the same for me. ;)

Feline Cerberus by Drakenhart

Thu, 07 Mar 2002 23:20:38 -0000

This was a (rather successful I think) experiment in Chalk pastels. Some of the color work may need a bit more work in the contrasting catagory. I only wish I could find the original. :(
