Description

This is for :iconquidamity:'s contest (which is still open: quidamity.deviantart.com/journ…).
It's illustration pertaining to my as of yet unamed story about two deer brothers, one of which is endowed with human-like intelligence. The story also features alien beings that manifest themselves as firey purple orbs, with the color purple being a recurring motif throughout the narrative.

You get a free critique as part of entering the contest, if you're not interested in a critique, then simply ignore this next bit!

As a huge fan of purple and blue this picture is certainly pleasing to my eyes =D It's very abstract too, it's a deer of some variety with a hole in it and a flower coming out of its head O_O like, I don't even know where to go with this. (I try to give good points and improvement ideas with every critique, but I don't have a strong abstract background).

Anatomy wise you've got the basics down for a deer, but you might consider doing a study on deer to really understand where muscle groups are and how they're connected. Just so you can make minor anatomical adjustments and make your shading a little more true to muscle form. Which I think would lend a good helping of reality to the abstractness of it all =D (I still want to see the comic about the brothers and their lives!)
