:rudolph: Everybody kept asking for Rudolph, so here he is :P

I've always thought the idea of a glowing nose was rather absurd, so I decided to change it around a bit. Apologies if you prefer the original, but this is my personal take on the reindeer.

Bonus tidbits: Rudolph is Dancer's older brother, and both Rudolph and Dancer are the offspring of Donner.

Dear Celesse:

This is Indy. Greetings from Canada!! I hope this finds you and yours well.

Due to the loss of access to my account, I find myself re-faving all the art from it, ergo; I'm re-faving your Rudolph bio (here) and your "Grandpa Rudolph."

Keep up the good work, kiddo!!


Believing in Sherlock Holmes always,


Indy.

This is lovely. Rudolph tends to be forgotten sometimes!

It's a realistic depiction of Rudolph. I like it.

I agree. . . it is absurd. But, a lot of things that is better than real life. I like the original, and your take on it.

But, reality can discourage you from dreaming. Fantasies motivate others to do the impossible.

Talking from far away was absurd. Then, someone invented the telephone. Now, we have long distance relationships. Sometimes, it's an absurd idea, that brings the impossible to life.

What can I say about all the childhood memories this little reindeer brings back? Best of all, your designs of the reindeer makes look like how they're supposed--a good strong animal. You always see on Christmas cards that it's whitetailed deer that are pulling that big heavy sleigh. They aren't strong enough. Yet, this is wonderful piece! He looks like one very happy little reindeer.

As the song said:

"You'll go down in history!"

Thanks for the memories, Celesse!

Sincerely yours always,


Indy.

I think you did a very adorable design for his 'glowing nose'

:iconhawkedell:
It went rudolph in song or tale, had a very shiny nose, and if you ever saw him you would even say it glows; the ridiculous glowing nose of meney cartoons may be absurd; however my interpretation of the character is that rudolph's nose has a reflective quality simaler to the moon in that both the moon and rudolph's nose can be said to glow. Also you for got 10: Annabelle, if your unfamiliar with Annabelle look up Annabelle's wish.
