Description
Ferdinand The Minotaur
His men thought he was suffering from Battle Fatigue, but The fact was, he had found an inner peace, free from Bloodshed and War!
Thanks Antonio this is a fantastic Character packed with goodies! :)
:) The 1st time I saw Antonio's Minotaur, it had sparked a memory of a very early animation by Walt Disney 1938, titled Ferdinand The Bull.
Preceeded by a book "The Story of Ferdinand" written by Munro Leaf and Illustrated by Robert Lawson. A story of a young bull that would prefer to smell the flowers than fight in the bull ring with his other fellows.

He wanted to stop and smell the roses, cute image Dennis!
This is outstanding Dennis; if only everyone could stop and smell the roses eh? Beautifully done!!!
I loved Walt Disney's Ferdinand The Bull! Really nicely done and great use of character! Super work Dennis!
did you ever hear the story about some bulls that was talking about a new ferocious bull that the rancher had bought.one said I only have 8 cows but I will not share any.the next repeated the same line except he only had 5 cows.a young bull said I have no cows, but if I did I would not share.well, the day came when the bull arrived and he was kicking the sides of the trailer and making a terrible noise.the young bull runs out and starts making his own noise.the other bulls tries to call him back and says that new bull will kill you.the young bull says I want him to know I am a bull!!! Jerry Clower-credit outstanding work Dennis and the minotaur is so easy to work with and the joints poses easy,Drakelot really did his homework as you did creating this scene

Wonderful work Dennis, you truly created a work of art and put forth a nice message in doing so. Great job on everything in this image my friend, especially the look he has on his face while staring at the flower and the little bird resting upon his horn.
Wonderful!

Funny image!!! Excellent work!! =)

Oh Dennis, only your sweet and tender heart would come up with such a beautiful concept and illustration. Truly wonderful. I love it.!!!!!!
A fantastic character and picture. Excellent.
This is Awesome Dennis! Ferdanand the Bull in the 21st Century :) Love the composition!
How wonderful this is Dennis! It's so refreshing to see something new and unique...thanks for sharing!
This is fantastic and funny Dennis. A real keeper for sure. Truly awesome image. This is very well done. This is really farout. Huggs... Silkylady...
LOL, wonderful job, Dennis! A delightful new type of image from you, and so glad you decided to post the kinder, gentler side of his nature! Sweet and clever!! :)
Great concept and an impressive composition, Dennis!
Excellent composition. Different for you but I love it.
I remember Ferdinand the bull.. was one of my fave Cartoons. This new twist on the story is very clever and exceptionally well executed. Bravo and multiple thumbs up Dennis! Very thought provoking. Too bad we all can't be Ferdinands. It's just in the nature of some to be warriors. Give them everything and they will still find a stupid reason to make war. Oh well.. Anyway, again.. super render my friend. Best wishes from Dave :^)
Very cool idea!
This is somewhat different for you Dennis, a very sweet image! :)
This image is so beautiful Dennis. First, thanks for using him for this story and artwork. Second, I do remember "Ferdinand the Minotaur Story and cartoon". I'm glad it worked O.K. in Vue. Awesome multiple character scene, posing (Impressive B.T.W.) and thanks a mill for your friendship and words. Straight to my video, special wall, site and Renderosity favs ... Antonio !!!
