Ainle and Carlyn Charsheet

Wow, I finished this at last. This is for the contest held by The task was to design a family for her Bacabello character.

A work-in-progress image and the final version as well are posted at [link] my new site. Some more info and thoughts I had during making this piece are also shared there

This piece features Áinle, a stallion, and Carlyn, daughter of him and Silverglass's character Akhalia. Those who wanted to enter also had to write a backstory for them, which I included in the character sheet. However, I include that in my comments as well, since it can be hardly read due to the quality of the resized picture.

"Áinle had always been a son to be proud of. His father wanted him to be the best of all others, though it wasn’t hard having great blodline, with all family members signed. Of course Áinle showed signs as well just when he was about to look for a mate. Akhalia and the young stallion were a perfect match; while Áinle was the best and strongest stallion among the Bacabellos, Akhalia was considered the most beautiful and fertile mere. Their relationship was unquestionable, however, courting a mere like Akhalia was hard even for Áinle. Being a loner, individual - but smart and having a sharp tongue - Akhalia resisted everyone’s approach. After a while even Áinle thought she was hopeless. But who else could they love if not each other? They had to realise they wouldn’t have anyone better because they are similar: perfect heirs to the fame of the Bacabello. The only problem with their relationship was that it was known that in Akhalia’s family not everyone was signed, despite the mare showed signs. Áinle didn’t care about this but his parents were worrying about whether the first foal of the young couple, Carlyn, would show signs as she grows older. This might cause greater troubles for Áinle since he would desperately defend the ones who he loves."

All the other details are listed on the sheet. Bacabellos are fun to design! So I have to congratulate on creating such a great breed, Silverglass!
