The mastodon, being such an amazing animal (that, and the band is awsome), called my attention for a piece in art class. Of course, this is the skeleton of one because I find the form of bones fun to shade. Unfortunately my scanner isn't big enough to handle the full size, but most of it is border anyway. Done in scratchboard.
True, the mammoth and mastodon are similar, but there are key differences that distinguish them. The key feature being that mastodons have straight tusks while mammoths have curved. Plus mastodon sounds cooler than mammoth.
You must be thinking of megatherium or something, not mastodon.
Thanks! That's how they do it with real fossils, so why not mine? And scratchboard has a way of doing that; the lines are only black and white, no grey.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
