Sketchbook// Reindeer studies (Patreon)

as requested, some reindeer studies! I feel I now know better how to draw them! It was a fun experience and I can share a little life story of mine...

a couple years back I worked at a reindeer farm in the UK as a Christmas elf and caretaker and I’ve been taking care of 10 reindeer, big and small as well as drove around with them to show to people. Dressed as a Christmas elf 😂 

reindeer aren’t the most friendly animals, they are only semi domesticated so they only like you if you have food for them. Mostly the would kick you out of their pen once you left the food. They also are basically cows with antlers, they don’t have teeth on their upper jaws, only the bottom and they smash what they eat with their gums!
