Capture them gently

[img id] Digital cel-shaded art of a white unicorn fleeing an unseen hunter in the woods. The unicorn leaps across an isometric chunk of land vegetated with plants drawn in the style of a medieval illuminated manuscript -- stylized grass and unknown plants, twisting painterly tree trunks, and broad paisley leaves. An arrow with red fletching stabs a tree behind the unicorn, just missing its mark. Below the unicorn, a small hedgehog mom has just rolled in some fresh grapes and is bringing them on her spines to her children in a burrow underground. [/id]

When you're working on multiple serious fanart wips at the same time and all of a sudden the silly kicks in.

(based on this manuscript illumination Histoire de Merline, France, ca 1316)
