Description
A small sketch done back in high school long ago to practice different pencil mediums.Just something simple but with some flow of a Chinese Kirin~
Note: I'veΒ receivedΒ quite a few messages and questions asking if this can be used for projects, tattoos, and the like. I certainly do not mind my work being used for these as long as permission is requested first. It's an honor to look back and see something I did so long ago that I thought was insignificant is liked by so many to this day. So a big thank you to all your lovely comments and fav's for this piece! I truly appreciate your kind words~

Wow, this is lovely.
I was also wondering if you would mind my using this for a research project? I would be using it on one slide with credit to you present as well. If not, I totally understand. Thank you.

This is beautiful, and kyrin are my favourite mythical creature. Would you be interested in allowing me to use this for a tattoo? If not, it is completely understandable, its your art, I'm simply madly in love with this rendition of kyrin in particular. <3Β

It's pretty cool. I like that even your pencil strokes express the movement, very organic and dynamic with lovely flow and curves. I also like it a lot as Kirin design.
Say, why is that kanji there? It means "an" peace in Japanese does it have similar meaning in Chinese (I know that some signs can be different between the two languages changing over time) or is it simply your artist-tag/sign maybe? o.o

Very lovely, and it certainly has the air of something painted in ancient China.

Dang. That's detailed. How big is it for real?
The scales and the hair are especially good. I like the horn, too. It looks like an antler. Bet this took a while.
You can imitate styles pretty well!
