Description
My second submission for 's contest, here: [link] Refrence for the girl: [link] the beautiful Kirsten Dunst posing for the September 2006 Vogue in dresses inspired by Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette.Here, I'm working with the popular myth of the maiden and the unicorn, although in the background you can also see a few gods. Since the middle ages, stories have been told about the affection of unicorns for girls of exceptional goodness. Based on this, here's the story:
The young lady - she looks like an Isabella to me - is perhaps an 18th cenury aristocrat with a strong, adventurous spirit. Unfortunately, she'd recently been pushed into an engagement she had no interest in. At the celebratory masquerade ball, however, she managed to slip off to the garden by herself and to her surprise, was chanced upon a beautiful unicorn who offered to take her away. A tap of its alicorn, and the garden's wrought-iron gate has just swung open on a world of gods, magic, and adventure.
I don't imagine young Isabella will ever be seen again.
Enjoy!

Beautiful! The colors and the style lend themselves well to the mythical feel, and all of the detail in it is killer.

I'm glad to hear you say that, because the background gave me three bloody days of trouble before I managed to beat it into looking respectable!

Well, that depends - I tend to fiddle, so it might be months or even years before I get it just so. But I think I know what you mean. Say I had a good idea, and it looked as nice drawn as it did in my head. It would probably take me between 15 and 24 hours.
