Splinterlands Arts Contest: The Baby Unicorn

The Baby Unicorn

Hello, Splinterfolks!

I've come today to share a watercolor art that I have made earlier today, inspired by the Baby Unicorn. It is a Common Life Monster with the Strengthen ability - it can give friendly monsters additional health, and has one melee attack from level 3.

This is also my entry to the Splinterlands Arts Contest for this week.

Drawing the Baby Unicorn

Obviously, the reference image is from Splinterlands.com, though I captured only the head. I made a pencil sketch at first on a normal A4 white paper. It was basically done as an art exercise with my children who did their own watercolor arts. So you can say that this is by no means a professional artwork - no, I am nowhere near that.

Watercolor

After the sketch, I was almost hesitant to continue coloring it. As usual, I was not confident how it would end up. While I ask my children to add color to their drawings, I am almost always not sure if I'd like to do for mine.

Anyway, I started coloring the outlines. So far, so good. But I was not as confident in the eyes.

Since the baby unicorn is white, only its mane needed coloring. I had to make do with the brush my daughter had given me. Somehow it tested the steadyness of my aging hands.

Thankfully, it was done in no time.

So here it is, with the reference.

I am actually quite pleased by the outcome. My sweet little son even said, it looked like a "printout". The final output (first photo) was edited via picsart app to add the background.

Thanks for bearing with me on this very simple art work.
