I actually came up with the base sketch for the new Pandeer a few months ago, but I wasn't sure about it.
So I scrapped it, forgot, and only recently found it again...
I thought the previous Pandeer were cute, but kinda boring, they were just a mash up of deer and panda.

I'm not sure if everyone will like these as much, but it's more whimsical and soooo my style.
They're now bipedal, with super fluffy bodies (it looks like jammies!), deer ears, antlers, and tail, and hard panda masks.
They almost always have some bits of cloth, which is sewn directly into their fur.
They have glowing gems on their foreheads (maybe to help them see since they're nocturnal?), and tummy pockets full of sleep powder.

I also changed the name back to Pandeer. I know Fawnda is probably cuter (and more unique), but I never liked it.

This is a custom for , Happy Birthday again, and thank you for all the commissions!!

About the Pandeer:
Long ago, humankind was plagued with dark beings who delighted in tormenting their mortal victims by devouring their dreams. To protect man, God appointed two creatures to watch over the night: the great panda, guardian of the east, and the white tailed deer, guardian of the west. They had the power to swallow evil whole, and expel the waste as pure thoughts and feelings, thus spreading goodness throughout the land. However, they were sworn to never leave their lands, because without their power, mankind would fall victim to darkness again.

One summery evening, the panda and the deer met by chance at an ancient spring that separated their homelands. They were instantly besotted, and from that point on, they continued to meet in secret. Some nights the panda would cross the spring to the west, other nights the deer would cross to the east, both alternating to keep the wicked forces from reclaiming their territories. But they were unable to hold back the evil.

Furious, God banished them to the furthest reaches of the planet, where they could never meet the other again. In their place, He created innumerable Dreamkits with the power to purify the human mind, and they guard the world to this day. However, during the short time the panda and the deer were able to love one another, they birthed children, the Pandeer.

Pandeer are strange creatures. They have fluffy pillow-like bodies with deer ears, tail, and antlers, but hard masks with panda markings. They have pockets full of sleep powder, and glowing gems to help them see at night. Because of their parents' disobedience, they are cursed offspring, powerless and unable to eat anything but the dreams of humans. The very thing the panda and deer fought so hard to protect, is now what their children must steal to live. Contrary to their circumstance, they are very sweet and loving creatures. With proper training, they make wonderful human companions. However, all Pandeer are sworn enemies of the Dreamkits, and will need to be protected from those over-zealous dream defenders.
