Equustra - Basic Non-morphic Reference (Spotless)
A sketch i did at work yesterday that i turned into a ref thingy ...for a while i've kinda wanted to make a better non-morphic reference for my character, but i'd never gotten around to it. This is probably good enough, despite only having one view. I guess the only place one can't readily discern or extrapolate by using their mental powers is the inner thigh. I have officially decided i like Equustra better without spots. Much more streamlined...
I rethought the taxonomic classification of this kind of unicorn and decided to make it a unique genus, since Equus isn't technically applicable. So, common stock unicorns are now members of the genus Alloequidae.
Anyway, a simple ref.
Man, making diffuse shadows like that really makes things pop out. You can almost peel her off the screen...
Need to add something in here about the hooves being cloven since you can't see that...
NOTE: Equustra has CLOVEN HOOVES

I like the spotless design too :D it looks, um, softer (gah, I suck at vocabulary after 3am, sorry >.< ). I've always liked how she's got a stockier sort of equine build, a little like a welsh or a bashkir; I see so many unicorns drawn like willowy arabians, it's nice to see a frame with some good heft to it. Never knew she was so adorably small, though XD only 12 hands? That just makes me want to give her cuddles and apple slices
