A while back I put up a "Beastcub Original" fursuit design for sale and a customer claimed it http://lilleahwest.deviantart.com/a.....SOLD-544359906
The hands and feet are done, the body is half way done and this is how far the head is.
I left the deer species choice up to the customer and he opted for "whimsical" as in I got to make up the species myself, the result will be a caribou/elk type deer.
When it came to the antler shape the customer had concerns with doorjambs since he is already 6 feet tall without the elevated head and antlers. SO to help avoid too many battles with overhead doorways I created a rack that is low set while still visually impactfull.
The back half of the antler design is like an set of elk antlers curled around the ears like ram horns, and the front part took many cues from caribou antlers.
...I really have no idea how practical these antlers would be in nature but I sure do love how they look lol.
I put a lot of extra time and effort into these, not just the elaborate paint job (which still needs some hand painted black "cooled" areas in the red) but a lot of extra effort went into the size and shape, so I wanted to shine a spotlight on them before the rest is done.

Holy canoli! That is a CROWN! That is a wonderfully fantastical take on the antler layout and I could totally see this being a thing in nature. I like the idea of the ram horn/elk/caribou crossing, that's a very awesome idea collage. I'm super excited to see where you go with this and I can't want to sqeee over the finished beasty!
