Description NOTE: For his posture, I referenced a drawing book containing deer anatomy (don't know the name of the book right now). I was a wonderful reference, but keep in mind that I did not invent his posture.

Rannoch! I've been re-reading Fire Bringer (and just a reminder, it's absolutely AWESOME) and thought I'd draw Rannoch. It's kinda rushed. It was one of those school night evenings (Thursday) when I really want to draw, but fear that if I don't start and finish in one sitting, it will never be done. As you know, I put up incomplete works, and the complete ones appear months and months later, ha ha! so this was quicky, but I managed to finish it. Rejoyce!

OMG I LOVE IT! I just finished reading Fire Bringer for the second time, and I agree with everyone else that the sight is a bit better. Larka rox the sox offa Rannoch. Hey, I have been wondering for awhile now, but I cant seem to find any other books containing Lera by Clement-davies...are there any other besides Fire Bringer and The Sight?

Moundfreek In reply to elliwise [2009-09-10 01:36:56 +0000 UTC]

Good Question! There is one other book with Lera, and that is the sequal to The Sight, called Fell. His other two are about people. However, he is due for another book in January called Scream of the Ice Bears (so excited)!

elliwise In reply to Moundfreek [2009-09-10 02:53:12 +0000 UTC]

Coolio! Do you think it's going to be about Lera and the other animals? That'd be so cool!

Moundfreek In reply to elliwise [2009-09-10 03:30:14 +0000 UTC]

Dunno! It's about a polar bear with a black paw, and that's all I know. Not sure if it's connected to the others (as The Sight and Fire Bringer were connected to eachother). I hope it is!

Oh my God, it's Rannoch! I absolutely loved that book! It's a gripping and enchanting story! David Clement-Davies has that sort of signiture in his work, huh?
And great work yourself! That's good shading. He looks quite proud and ready to take on anything!

Thanx! I'm glad you like it so much. More importantly, it's nice to see another DCD fan. I agree, his work is wonderful, some of the best I've read. In fact, I call The Sight my favorite book.

1-Renaissance In reply to Moundfreek [2008-11-08 20:56:20 +0000 UTC]

Really? You do? I'd say that's my favorite as well, though it's hard to favor a book of his over the other. Next to the Sight or level with it, is Fire Bringer.

Wow!!!

This is awesome I wish I could draw like that

I've read Fire Bringer and it is a great book but it is so sad because I liked Peppa and it was really upseting when she died

Moundfreek In reply to jafpollyanimallover [2008-04-14 06:22:33 +0000 UTC]

Yes, Mr. Clement-Davies had written some sad stories. But each are suspensful and adventures, and hold messages so powerful they exceed description.

My friend and I were just discussing these very ideas this evening!

Anways, glad that you like my drawing! I too was sad when Peppa died. I felt so sad for Bankfoot too. He was one of my favorite characters, and he loved her most of all

jafpollyanimallover In reply to Moundfreek [2008-04-16 08:36:50 +0000 UTC]

Yes, very sad at how hurt Bankfoot was.

You are right the story was very adventurous with wise messages.

Wow, that is just amazing. I just finished reading Fire Bringer a couple of hours ago and, because I loved it so much, was searching for fanart of it.

This is just gorgeous, Rannoch looks so noble and huggable You drew him in such a way im jealous (funny, I have deer living in the woods in my backyard and I still can't draw them)

But seriously, this is excellent. A must fav ^^

Moundfreek In reply to PolishStitch [2007-08-03 07:25:06 +0000 UTC]

Glad you like the drawing! I feel silly that people like it. I was looking at another deer drawing when I made it, so I never felt that it was entirly my own. I try to not draw things to much like existing drawings/photographs that are not my own. Still, always happy to meet other Fire Bringer fans! I'm so happy you enjoyed the book!

PolishStitch In reply to Moundfreek [2007-08-03 20:23:54 +0000 UTC]

I know what your saying about the whole 'took the pose from a book' thing, used to happen to me too. But now I think of it as a way of, getting the idea down before you move ahead to your own poses, kinda like, practicing-ish.

But yea, I was afraid that because it was a book their wouldn't be alot of fans here, guess I was wrong

this is hekka late and all for a comment but, I just gotta say, wonderful drawing. They should really make FireBringer into a movie, I love the book, reading it like twice in one day haha, so a movie would rock.

A movie of Fire Bringer WOULD rock, ONLY if they did it acurately, then it would be awesome

This is probably the best picture of Rannoch that I've seen. He looks very strong, and his antlers seem powerful. It looks just like I've always imagined him.

Woo, Rannoch! Love Firebringer and love this drawing - especially the fawn mark. It's kinda subtle, but noticeable, and it goes with the flow of the fur, which I always fail to do when drawing deer Brilliant picture!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Moundfreek In reply to TheAwkwardPossum [2005-11-13 00:00:08 +0000 UTC]

OH yes!! You MUST read Fire Bringer! It is about a red deer, Rannoch, born with a white-leaf birthmark on his forhead. His heard is currently under the tyranny of a ruthless warrior, and an old prophecy speaks of a fawn "on his brow a leaf of oaken" that will "confront the evil one" and bring his heard to peace again. He is forced to flee, but must return one day filfill his destiny, even if the prophecy heralds his meaning of sacrifice .... SO GOOD!!! MUST READ!!
