such a long time since last post...i've been in the worst artistic lull, and there's no guarantees that it's over yet, but at least this is done... I still can't decide if I should add more scales, but for now I'll leave it as is, since I have other stuff i want to work on...oh and i did use reference for its pose...somewhere... just another kirin, done with microns (brown and black)
I'd definitely suggest leaving this as it is! The ratio of scales to the rest of the kirin is beautiful! I love the balance of detail and simple flowing lines. Simply beautiful.
