I don't know that I've heard any stories of Herne saying anything at all actually

Well, that makes it a bit difficult to quite the guy, doesn't it?

Thanks,  I'm not sure why,  there was a thunder storm the other day, and there is a nature reserve over the road from my house, so it just seemed to pop into my head

Great render. You are right. The best personification of this elemental being is Herne the Hunter. One must understand the meaning of the antlers. They should continue in lightnings and flashes that come out and reach into the astral widths. The god behind is Thor. Maybe that this mystery can explain why from the stone age period archeologists find lots of antlers as gifts in tombs etc.

I was originally planning to render this with lightning in the background,  but I felt I've done too many like that recently
