Description I started working on this way back in July, when I was at Anime Expo. I found out that Peter S. Beagle (The Last Unicorn author) was in attendance, so I went and hunted down his booth so I could get a copy of the new graphic novel that had just come out. I had missed the opportunity to buy it at a previous con, so I was excited that I not only got a copy, but I got to meet the author, too!

Anyway, it put me in the mood for sketching unicorns. ^^ I can't help but feel like she looks totally 80's, but I guess it's to be expected since my earliest memories of unicorns were from that time (ala Last Unicorn and Rainbow Bright).

And....she's with seabirds, because we went to the beach when we were in California for AX, too. The ocean is so pretty on the West Coast- even more so at dawn or dusk!

I bought this print of yours in an art store in north carolina. (I didn't know who you were at the time) I love it so much.

She does look totally 80's. That's the best part - besides the eight billion long curls in the mane, curly toes, curly clouds, and smart black gulls!! (Got a print of this because the little girl part of my brain wouldn't stop flipping out!) Very nice design. So fun!

Thanks so much for picking up a print! It makes me so happy when people tell me "my inner little girl is flipping out!" I hope she brings you much happiness, where ever you decide to hang her!

And thanks for picking up a little Dragon print for your sister, too; I hope she likes it!

Well, the Last Unicorn herself was 80s (as a movie) right? I suppose it's inevitable that will rub off- but so what! Your colors are lovely and the whole piece looks so alive!

Cinnamoron In reply to Nikuda [2011-10-26 01:06:24 +0000 UTC]

Oh no!

Someday I feel like I should make an adjoining panel to his- "A Unicorn's Guide to Hunting RedBeards" so they can have their revenge. XD

Thanks! I had her finished for DragonCon, but I'm always slow to post things. ^^

By the way, I sent Cassandra a message on facebook today about the books she loaned me. I don't know how often she checks her messages, but I just wanted to ask if y'all were still at the same address (so I can mail them back to her).

Amohs In reply to Cinnamoron [2011-10-25 08:21:26 +0000 UTC]

Yep, we're still at the same address! I let Cassandra know you sent her a message; she's been tied up today drawing the next Diva page.

Cinnamoron In reply to Amohs [2011-10-26 01:03:01 +0000 UTC]

Oh, it's no biggie! I just wanted to let her know that I was going to be sending the books back (I read them a while ago and then forgot that I still had them! ). Anyway, I'll try to get them mailed before I leave for a convention this weekend.

Oh, and I saw that she was working on Diva again a little while ago! I'm so glad to see that fans came through and are still supporting the comic!

I'm planning on getting postcards printed for next con season! I would have had some printed for Onicon, but I've been ordering postcards in bulk lately to save money, and I didn't have enough designs together yet that warranted a print run.

Kiriska In reply to Cinnamoron [2011-10-25 00:50:09 +0000 UTC]

I'll have to grab them from you next A-kon then, unless you're gonna be at SakuraCon?

Cinnamoron In reply to Kiriska [2011-10-25 04:08:40 +0000 UTC]

Probably A-kon then! I won't be at SakuraCon in person, but I am planning on putting some stuff in the art show. I probably won't be putting up postcards, though, so A-kon is the best bet. ^^
