Borzen Speedpaint

Description

This is a quick little Borzen (alien species) speedpaint that took me about an hour.

Borzens are pack herbivores - they can sometimes live in packs that exceed 30 members, although a usual pack only has about 10.
They have two legs in the back, and on in the front. This front leg is primarily used for stability, especially when grazing grass or eating small plants/leaves. It can, however, also be used for fighting, to reach leaves (like standing up and keeping it on a tree trunk to reach higher leaves), help to get up after lying down, and for walking and jogging. When running at high speeds, it is usually tucked up.
The spines on the back of the neck and on their shoulders are used to scare large predators away. The shoulder spines are usually flat against their back when running, sleeping, and scared. They are puffed out when in battle, when angry/protective, and when it's mating season (as they are used to attract mates). The head ones share most of the same traits except that they cannot be moved drastically (maybe a bit up or down, but not a lot), and can be used directly in battle (like ramming).
Their four eyes give them a much wider view of the surrounding area, and the two tails give them more stability when running. They can also be used in battle.
The back feet have three giant toes that end in a hard, hoof-like nail. The front foot has only two toes ending in the same 'nail', but sharper.
They have a very deep woop-screech call, but can make a wide variety of grunts, whines, and even roars.

The Borzen species and art belongs to me, :iconsilver-drake:
