I think she has to be one of the most underrated characters I know of. I'm not even sure why I adore her as much as I do (she's either my favorite Bambi character or a VERY close second to the Young Prince himself), but I think it's such a shame that she isn't as fleshed out as some of the others (particularly Thumper, who though I don't hate him, I feel gets overexposed at times).
I'm hoping to have her play a major role in a fanfic I'm currently working on, but as of now I'm just trying to get the hang of writing her just as she is in canon, which is proving much harder than I thought mainly because I have so little canon characterization to go on. I've scoured the film, the midquel, and even the original novel several times, and it's been a while since I was able to eke out any trace or seed of personality I hadn't already.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks Faline gets left out too often, and it's always a pleasure to see nice fanart of her!

She's definitely underrated. If not for Faline playing with Bambi, he would have most likely not run into his father. She was also his first introduction to other young deer, so she had a hand in him getting used to being around other deer. When they're older, Faline brings Bambi happiness after him losing his mother. She may not be an entirely interesting character, but I feel like she's really important to Bambi's story, and I think she deserves more attention.
This is really nice, by the way. I love that you put a realistic touch on her. My mom's one friend actually had a pet deer named Faline. He had her wearing a bandana around her neck most of the time, and funny enough, she HATED his girlfriend at the time. She would attack her. XD

Right I think so! ^^ Theres loads of underrated disney characters I may do a few more who knows, But yes your so right! Without her Bambi would have never become 'the hero' fighting rono and the dogs ect...the same as all the other sidekicks/ friends/ characters that need some drawing. Maybe ill draw a few more of them ;3
AWW he actually HAD a pet deer? Haha thats amazing (so he saved it from a fawn?) lol bet she wanted your mums friend for herself ;3

I'd love to see more underrated Disney characters from you. I definitely would love to see more Faline, or perhaps the two fawns they had together at the end of the movie. Yupp! I actually remember I'd sometimes see her outside when my bus would go past his house. I never actually got to meet her, or pet her or anything, but I did at least get to see her a few times. I'm not sure how he got her, but I assume he saved her. Maybe the mother was killed when Faline was just a fawn? I actually had my own Bambi pet too. My dad found an abandoned baby skunk that was sick, so he took it in. It was so little that it didn't know how to spray yet. My mom said people thought it wasn't real because it looked like a stuffed animal. My brother, being a toddler at the time, wanted to name the skunk Flower. Flower, unfortunately, didn't live for long since he was so sick. I wish my mom would've taken pictures of him, because I don't remember him. I was either too little or not born yet when he was around.
