Description Like everybody, I really loved Pierre Gringoire from Notre Dame de Paris. I think I like anybody who is good with animals!
Speaking of, I have never drawn a goat before.

Yeah. I like him too. I thought he was Clopin at first in the Notre Dame de Paris musical, but that must be my "only exposed to the Disney version of the story" mentality talking. Any how, I like him best out of all the characters in the original story.

I hear that Victor Hugo based the character for Gringoire on himself.

He must have been a marvellous person. (Well, I suppose that goes without saying, he wrote Les Mis.)

This picture is darling! I am impressed with your goat drawing skills.

Really? I hadn't heard that, but it's interesting. Especially interesting that he models the most likeable male character on himself LOL. Thanks!!

Heh, I'm maybe a third of the way through the book, and I was almost convinced that Gringoire was going to do something horrible to poor Djali.... uh... out of love? For her pretty horns and pretty gilt hooves?
But I digress. This pic of these two is so cute. Very good first drawing of a goat. I hope more are to come in the future

XDDD I remember when reading that book, just constantly thinking "Pierre's life sucks..." Bless his heart. But at least he was one of the lucky few who made it in the end.

Gringoire really loved Djali. XD I loved how most of the time he seemed more concerned about Djali than Esmeralda.

Seriously, that is an awesome first attempt for drawing a goat!

DetectiveMel In reply to DarthPooky [2008-10-14 22:54:07 +0000 UTC]

I'd be more concerned about the goat too! I thought it was adorable that he loved the goat so much but apparently a lot of people read as hinting to an indecent kind of love! LOL, that never seemed apparent to me when I read it!

Thanks! Goats are surprisingly easy to draw actually. If you have never dawn a goat before, I urge you to try it.

DarthPooky In reply to DetectiveMel [2008-10-14 23:15:51 +0000 UTC]

To tell the truth, I would be more concerned about Djali as well. I didn't care much for Esmeralda. And Gringoire didn't nearly get enough love. >.<

The only animal I've ever drawn is a dog, but now that you mention goat-drawing, I will have to try it!

Ahh! Still need to read that one... Wow the cell-shaded look is really cute with this. Djali was my sister's favorite character from the Disney movie incidentally. I never knew why.

Because goats are amazing.
When I was a kid, she was probably my favourite character too. Hell, she probably is my favourite, even from the book. Goats are bah-d arse (ho ho, I crack me up )

lol I was always the little girl who was like I HAVE TO LIKE THIS CHARACTER BECAUSE SHE'S A GIRL AND SHE'S PRETTY. So I'd always look at my sister like... what?

I always liked the animals! My youngest brother is the same as I was when I was his age lol. Whenever we watch a film and a dog or cat or whatever comes on screen he goes: "Is the dog going to die??"
