I want to get some pet quail after college, so I got this too-small-for-birds birdhouse and decorated it. 

The roof and insides are done in Stuart Semple’s Black pigment. You can see it’s not quite that black-hole-in-space level of darkness, but, unless I shine a light directly into the entrance, the inside of the birdhouse looks like it doesn’t exist. It’s a pretty neat effect. 

My lamp wasn’t kind to the coloration here. It’s a bit sparklier in person, and less dingy. The black marks all over it are intentional, it looked too plain otherwise, and they look a bit better in person. 

The perch was missing, so I replaced it with a pencil that slides out to keep track of things. 

I like it!

The North American Branch Horn

Perhaps the most common of unicorn in the country but perhaps the most overlooked. More often mistaken for a deer or strange tree than a unicorn. Only the keen of detail can spot these creatures as they roam their vast wooded territories. 
A solitary unicorn that prefers humans with a pure heart toward nature. They will often be found around nature reserves or defending their land. Occasionally blessing a lost human with their guidance back home. 

Fond of: Children and woman, gifts and/or offerings, unprocessed honey

Natural predator: Mountain lion

Approach-ability: 8/10

So, I was pretty unhappy with the Luden’s facial design in my last concept post. He appeared too flat to me. This pushed me to try and add more color to him. Not intensely, but in a way that’s fleshy and almost organic, to contrast against his synthetic being~.

The synthetic hair, as well as the red tints, I thought, really gave him the organic appearance I was looking for. I also think it makes him appear more humane, but also more~… not~? If that makes any sense~.

I’m trying to develop my own aesthetic. I want to bring organic and synthetic together in a strange combination, that is both horrifying and pretty, in a strange way. I’m also really digging the color combination of white and red. It used to be one of my least favorite color combinations, but it turns out, if you do it right, it looks terrifically elegant~.
