Native Pegasus Geocoin

I've been a little quiet on the design front this year, just had lots of changes going on (positive) so my time has been very limited. However, if you've been following along on Facebook, you already know what I've been up to design wise :)

 

I'd like to introduce you to "Native Pegasus". I've wanted to do a Pegasus for quite some time but was never inspired to put something to paper until a couple months ago. I drew this fella over the course of 2 days. First it was going to be the full Pegasus and then I changed my mind and went for the shoulder and above view so I could really work on the wings. I changed a few things here and there and this is the final design come to life in a coin :D

 

As always, the artwork is all hand-drawn, I don't aim to aspire to perfect lines and symmetry as my designs tend to be more true to Mother Nature and her imperfections (the perfection is the imperfection) so I like to keep "honest" if you will but that's just me.

 

Obviously there is some major Native American influence on a mythological creature going on here. As usual, colors and design were done with special meaning. That's not something that I normally share with everyone as I like it to mean what you want and need it to mean. The names themselves are a major insight into how I perceived each version up to this point.

 

The back side was purely done in fun and I just wanted to play a little bit.

 

I'm rambling, so in other words... I really hope you like this design, it's very special to me. I'll have 1 version to debut at Geocoinfest and when I come home, I'll open it up to reservations if the design seems to be popular to people, that way no one has to duke it out on the store.

 

I'll post here, on Facebook, Twitter, Blog when I open this up for reservations, right now just sharing B)

 

Thanks,

tsun

Yep love the red, white and blue and can't go to GCF. Oh well a girl can dream!

 

That one is not going to GCF. It seemed to be the most liked on FB so I'll keep it set aside for reservations :)

Wow. Pegasus have always been a favorite with me. And the Native American is very close to my heart. I absolutely LOVE the Spirit of Ancestors. I also love the idea of presales. I seem to miss out on all your sales. :P

Thank you :anibad:

 

Yup reservations will be taken for versions after GCF comes and goes :cry:

 

Have a great weekend all.

edit to add: I've been wearing my samples as necklaces to work and everyone there has been very complimentative of the coin. As almost always, they are so much sweeter in person.

Does that mean your co-workers aren't as nice when you're not around? :anibad:

Love that is has a hole ... wearable coins are fun and everyone always asks what they are ... I have one of the (dorkfish?) gray whale coins I wear as a necklace.

Beautiful work, Steph! :)

 

I'd like to say that I'll be at GCF but even as close as it is, since some of my circumstances have changed since May, I cannot commit to the trip. I'll watch for the after GCF reservations and keep my fingers crossed that I can figure out how to go. :)

An unannounced sale of 2 versions along with some dragonflies and Neptunes went up for sale.

 

These were versions headed to GCF. There are limits, 1 each of the dragonflies, 2 of Neptunes, and I think it's unlimited for Pegasus.

 

I'll have a small amount with me for traders at the events.

 

Twitter and FB was notified just a few minutes ago.

OMG! I love you :ph34r: What a nice way to wake up! And am I wide awake now? :P

 

Lol, remember that, next one might be right after you go to bed, lol.

 

The nice thing about unannouced is it's not an F5 affair although I anticipate one of those coming down the road too :wub: Gotta mix it all up.

 

Thanks :lol:

Thanks all :ph34r:

 

I'll work on more color combos after GCF and do reservations for all the designs sold today.

 

Much appreciated,

I really love the unannounced sales.

 

One thing I'm wondering...did you sell the red, white and blue Pegasus? I am hoping I didn't miss it!

 

No, I promised I would open those to reservations which I'll do after GCF when I have more free time.

 

Hey, I just saw a nutella commercial on tv :ph34r:

I missed the sale since i was out shopping with the kids for some new school pants since the weather went from 100 degrees to the 60's and most of there new school clothes are shorts dresses and capris.

 

I got the email but my new phone was not all the way set up to deal with everything so i decided to stick with the shopping for the girls.

 

Congrats to the ones that made it in time.

 

I am looking to trade if anyone has extra.

Thanks Tsun for the lovely surprise.... I was logging on to get to a web seminar and saw your announcement of the sale opening up - what they hey, I'll check it out and couldn't believe my good fortune, the webinar just had to wait.

Once again tsun produces an awesome coin with this design!

 

I'm so glad I was lucky enough to get one, I can't wait for the reservations so I can get myself a few more..
