A Fflam Never Flags!
OK, just had to get that out of the way. I haven't done anything here in ages, so I decided to dust up some old sketches and stick them up. These are three characters from Lloyd Alexander's "young adult" fantasy quintet often called The Prydain Chronicles. These were absolutely my favorite books in my (much maligned) teen years, and they still hold a dear place in my heart. The main character is Taran the assistant Pig Keeper. On his left is his faithful side kick, Gurgi, basically a bipedal dog that talks, and very much based on my Mom's dog, Ziggy. On his right is Fflewddur Fflam, Bard of the Harp [ping!]. If I ever figure out how to draw a harp, I may add that in. Oh, and the atrocious abomination that was the eighties Disney animated film (when "loosely based" meant "with a few elements in common with") DID NOT HAPPEN. |

Plus I absolutely hate it when people watch me while I'm trying to concentrate on something... it brings out the meaner side of my nature (not a pretty thing).

I like your Taran. Glad somebody else out there thinks of him as having long hair, because I keep getting flack for it.
You should definitely get Fflewddur a harp. A quick google search on Celtic harps should get you a decent reference.
With you all the way regarding the film. That's a very bitter subject with me.

I'll take your advice about the harp. My poor Fflam must feel lonely without it.
For some unexplainable reason, these books are so close to my heart, it's always a joy to meet another fan.

Anyway: Taran totally rocks. This is exactly as I imagined him! Gurgi is interresting, and I like your take. For some reason, it never occured to me that Fflewddur might have a beard. But it looks nice.
It's so nice to see another fan around - we're so few and far between!
