Description This is a new character of mine's, a Scottish blackface ram who identifies as female. I thought it'd be an interesting twist on a sheep character, since they're often stereotyped as stupid animals who just mindlessly follow their herd.

Meadow's still very much a work in progress, so her style of clothing may change as she's developed. As for abilities, by rubbing her fur she can build up enough static electricity to use as a means of defense by shocking bad guys.

She looks like a Zootopia character.

Well, Dawn was one of my inspirations for creating a sheep character.

Ah, so THIS is is Meadow! I'm glad I got a chance to see her in the flesh!...er, illustrated flesh, but you know what I mean lol. She's a little darling and I can't wait to see what you've got planned for her. I'm all for changing stereotypes on their ears too, so this was a totally neat idea. I really dig the hooves: hooves are sometimes hard even for me to do! But yes, her power sounds perfect for her--I'm sure that her enemies will be shocked to know how much power she has. *shot for using terrible pun* But seriously, she's looking good, buddy!

LOL, yeah, I get what you mean. I was trying to remember if I'd mentioned Meadow to you before or not. Thank you, I'm happy you like her! Out of curiosity, how do you approach drawing hooves?

Haha, you and your puns. XD

Yep you have! And I'm glad you did. Anytime! She's a sweetheart. Hooves? Hmm...well it depends on the style and/or illustration itself, but generally, I go about drawing the hoof like it's a triangle, but rather than complete the triangle, I make a curve on the last side of the triangle and then draw straight up to make the fetlock. I hope that makes sense.

I should make a guide to drawing hooves one of these days. Thanks for the idea. XD

Aww, thanks! Yeah, I think I understand what you mean. A hoof tutorial does sound like a good idea; there are probably some out there, but I wouldn't be surprised if they're fairly uncommon. You're very welcome.

Aww, she looks so pretty! Hahah, and I love her means of defense. But your twist on her species as one who doesn't follow the herd reminds me of the upcoming Zootopia movie. ^^

Thanks. It's just really fun to turn cliches and stereotypes on their heads. Oh, the Zootopia sheep character is adorbs (I definitely plan on going to go see that movie).

Welcome, and I hope you're able to see the movie real soon so we can discuss it!

Of course. I'll probably post a journal about it here when I do.

I've always had a thing for naturally curly women. You DO know me! I liked her even before reading the description. She looks pretty fun! I don't know about you, but hooves have always been deceptively tricky for me to draw, but yours are nice. Good shading, too.

Aye, subversion of tropes is always dandy.

LOL. What can I say, my powers of intuition are potent. But thank you, I'm glad Meadow meets with your approval! If you ever want any tips on drawing hooves, I'd be happy to help out.

Yep! Agreed wholeheartedly.

She's adorable! I really like her power, too. I can't wait to learn more about her though! And you know I love turning stereotypes and tropes on their head so I already approve of that. And your art is great as usual.

Thank you! At first she wasn't going to get any powers, but then the static electricity thing came to my mind and wouldn't leave.

I know that feeling. I think it's a good idea though! Great job on her!
