Daemons and their peoples

[awanderingbard]

All right, I've done my daemon portraits up now. It was good practice, and a lot of fun. You can see them below the cut. There are characters who haven't appeared in my stories yet, but for whom I have headcanon. Including Q. Just 'cause. The sizes and styles vary depending on what photos I could find of the characters and the animals they have. All character images are from Cumberbatchweb. The animal images are just google search results.

They were all sort of inspired by the portraits that inspired Phillip Pullman to create the concept of daemons. Here's one from the daemon page on wiki. I saw it when I was researching daemons back in the day.

Molly & Duinn Japanese Flying Squirrel	Mycroft & Hisoka Pallas's cat	Lestrade & Leala otterhound	John & Subira Dwarf Mongoose
Irene & Quenell Superb Bird of Paradise	Q & Efimia degu	Mrs Hudson & Carwyn raven	Sherlock & Tzophiya African Go-Away Bird
Alec & Larisa meerkat	Sarah & Jabir Canada Goose

I'm done now. Probably.

Hey, I made you a Sherlock and Dagany portrait.

You absolutely don't have to do anything with it, I was just messing about. I'd like to do John and Jorrun, too, but I have not yet looked into binturongs and how they might attach to their humans.

I'm glad you like it! I've always loved Dagany, and her little ears. :-D

And here's Jorrun. I wasn't quite sure about her size, so I hope she's okay. Binturongs are smaller than I had originally thought, and I figured Jorrun might be smaller due to being a female of the species, and belonging to an undersized human.
