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.

Great design, the Minotaurus has a kind of flair from Ferdinand from an old Disney animated cartoon! Great.
Fantastic realization! Gorgeous scene!!!
Ferdinand was one of my favorite childhood books. This picture adds a cool twist to the story. =)

Really fantastic image. Love the "Minotaur with the inner peace". Grandios!
Extraordinary work
LOL, I guess just about everyone remembers Ferdinand! You've done an awesome job with this one! Everything about this is beautifully done, from the very far background to the close up settings, from the warriours to the chickadees .. just awesome!
oh this is so wonderful to view. It just proves that beauty is in most all.
great work!
It appears that Ferdinand has found his "inner beef" ... er I mean "inner peace." Wonderful well accomplished composition. Excellent!
Ferdinand goes down as one of my favorite characters. I am laughing at 2Looose but it's true, he seems almost zen like. The details are wonderful, and as always, your compositions make me smile :)
Oh my, don't know how I missed this. I think this may be my all time fave of yours. Probably because I love animals. Excellent. You have not done anything recently. I hope all is well with you. Sending hugs! Nancy
