I'm slowly getting back into the Sonic fandom but more into fan characters along with canon characters(i.e. Sally Acorn, Amy Rose, etc.) and recently came up with this character.
I was reading The Book of Faeries by Francis Melville recently(I bought that book in mid 2000's) again and that's when I got an inspiration. Why not make Sonic FC's based on mythical creatures or even better, mix them up with certain animals? Since my fursona is a Faerie Lynx(I do need to update my Sonic FC version of my fursona) I figured that I should do the same on my future Sonic FC's.
I created Atlantiea, a Dryad Doe Deer. My reasons for picking this animal because I was watching Disney's Bambi couple weeks ago on Amazon and since deer and stags are known for being spirit forest animals, it makes perfect sense for the environment. Since she's a female deer, she doesn't have antlers like males do(I'll get around to draw them as well, including the male leader stag based on Bambi's father).
The name I came up for is from a Greek Hamadryad nymph
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlanteia
Dryads are tree nymphs aka forest faeries or tree spirits. They would turn into human appearances but most of the time, they're in form of trees. Atlantiea and her fellow Dryads would turn themselves into trees to hide themselves out from outsiders hence why no one was able to see them and believed that they are just myths.
Atlantiea's design was based on Earth Element's doll maker flash game. I had to make some minor changes to her.
I'll post more info of her soon since she's in development stage. I also didn't use any pose references either.
I'll get around to color her soon.
