Description
Requested by GollumDragon -- Strata has yet to abandon a request he's promised to do, but he's yet to actually finish them in a timely manner, either. Hey Gollu, you didn't forget about it, right?
It's of her as-yet unnamed fantasy minotaur character. With only one reference ([url=pic-173090.html]here[/url]) and few words to go on (though I wouldn't have it any other way), this is what I came up with, and for some reason it still feels like my first attempt at an, ahem, 'busted' character. I was a bit in the dark on what kind of feet she should have, so I came up with these elongated hooves, sort of like a mental cross between normal cloven hooves and women's high-heels. The rest of the details (save for a bracelet, necklace, and nose ring), are true to GollumDragon's reference.
I threw the abstracted background in as a bonus, and then chose "Miranga" as a potential name -- derived from 'minotaur' and 'ranger'.
Also, in addition to the date/time and initials, I'm also going to start hiding small signatures in each drawing. Got a magnifying glass handy? You might need it.

Thanks so much, Strata, as always you go above and beyond what's expected. I know I wasn't too clear, and you did a really good job figuring everything out. I had originally planned on more bullish hooves, but I like your idea. They remind me of geta. Beautiful job on the bow, its what started my idea for her character. Thanks again!! XD(I see a signature on her quiver!!!)
Now time to finish that entry for your next contest ;) (and I'm assuming you made that "Precious" title?)
