qilin pinup sketch

pencil on vellum bristol.

I liked antlers/horns on her better than a single horn, which my roommate argued against because qilins/kirins are supposed to be Chinese/Japanese unicorns. WHATEVER.

I love pinups. Referenced an Elvgren vintage pinup for the pose (while butchering the proportions at the same time). This is gonna get cleaned up more and transferred onto Stonehenge (or printed, if the ink is permanent and not water-soluble like i'm afraid it is) in order to be painted.

Will move to scraps when i get tired of it on my front page or i have a better version to upload.
