OOooOoooOhhhh God! T_T Its the brightest thing I've ever made *clings*

Ahhh Its nice to try a different color palette from time to time *hides dreary colored gallery in shame*

Anyway. Yakul the red elk and Ashitaka from Princess Mononoke. <3 this was fun <333

Anyway. Before anyone stabs me with fanforks, I really made no attempt to emulate the style of the movie. I don't know how old Ashitaka is supposed to be but I have always assumed he is young by how much shorter and cuter he is than most of the men. So *shrugs* I felt I drew him as a little older and lankier. Fun for me :) Otherwise go ahead and get your gripe on lol <3

I made this into a wallpaper for myself (because I can never find anything in the right resolution T_T)
So here is a 1920x1200 version for those who want it :) [link]
does anyone want a smaller size?
ANND just for the heck of it here is a 1024x768 version but it's the original version so its all mucky and textured. [link]


Yakul and Ashitaka are from Princess Mononoke, a Studio Ghibli film.
