Nikeridas loved to shapeshift. He enjoyed the thrill of exploring different forms and sensations, especially the ones that were very different from his own. One day, he decided to try something new. He went to a secluded forest, where no one would see him, and he focused on his transformation. He imagined himself as a feral deer, with soft short fur and slender legs. He felt his body changing, shrinking and reshaping, until he was a perfect replica of the animal he had envisioned. He opened his eyes and looked around. Everything seemed bigger and brighter. He sniffed the air and smelled the fresh grass and flowers. He felt a surge of energy and curiosity. He ran through the woods, leaping over logs and rocks, feeling the wind in his fur and the ground under his hooves. He was free and happy, living in the moment. He didn't care about anything else but his new adventure.

I tried myself on some traditional art having all the colours and pencils available.
And my refernece was a doe and saw that after I was finished. I didn't think of antlers.
