Description He goes along witht the jackrabbit. They'll have names eventually. The only photo ref I had handy was a forward shot of two males. Both had their legs hidden so I did what I could without knowing what antelope legs look like. I'll have to change those later!

Great sketch...I'm jealous. The only complaint would be that the back leg seems a little short...maybe my eyes are just seeing things weird, but otherwise, I love this and your skill.

No, no, you are probably right about the leg! I didn't have a leg ref, so I took a stab at them and they probably aren't even true to antelope legs. XD

Very nice work! Your sketches look great. I really hope you get some actual animation done someday. I know you're working on it, but it's such a huge daunting task.

Hopefully one day, we'll see your studio and your animated movies on the big screen!
You can do it!

I hope so too! I'm finding I just don't have the time for it in college, but I'm hoping to take courses in animation while my boy is in grad school.

I'm a sucky leader and would much rather hide in dark basements animating for people than trying to run a studio. Thanks for the encouragement! It's much loved. <3

Oh wow
For the fact that you only saw a forward shot this is great!
The legs look as if you had the complete body as ref...
I love your style and skills of anatomy! Please keep uploading great pics like this

I adore drawing deer, so I just based the legs off of them and enlarged the hooves (deer have adorable teeny feet!).

Yeah I love deer too! But since I was a Bambi-addict I didnยดt draw any deers and yeah...now I suck at ^^
Maybe if you have some free-time left you could do a general tutorial on deers? *puppy-eyes*

Ooo, we'll see if I can fit one in. Anything to draw deer some more! The main thing I find that effects their design is the nose and what you choose to focus on. For instance, you can draw the nostrils or you can focus on the nose pad, or the top of the nose pad, or the nose pad and nostrils together. Bambi focused more on the nose pad top, but it always looked like a canine nose to me (Love that movie despite the doggy noses!).

DeyVarah In reply to wadifahtook [2005-04-25 19:45:14 +0000 UTC]

Well, I never focused that much on nose types before...but Iยดll give it a try asap
Though Iยดd greatly appreciate if you did a tutorial
I loved Bambi too and I want to see the second part ^^

Uber fluffiness. If antelopes are ever to look cuddly, this one'll make the charts. :3
