# Portraits of Actaeon

Enough furry artists have drawn pictures of my character that I decided to create a web page to show off their work. I'm flattered!

### "Farfromhuman_small.gif"

by Actaeon, 1996 -- 225x279, grayscale, 8K.

My first furry drawing, entitled 'Farfromhüman,' which I made as a parody of the various other parodies of the Volkswagen slogan 'Fahrvergnügen.'

### "actaeon1-kozart.jpg"

by Parmigianino (with help from Barnside), 1996 -- 266x305, color, 12K.

The original Renaissance painting which appears on my home page, except that it has now been jazzed up by BarnSide, using Adobe Photoshop.

### "Diana and Actaeon" ("tor-actaeon-diana-sm.gif"; one-third actual size)

by Tim O'Rourke (aka "TOR"), 1995 -- 309x256, grayscale, 15K.

A drawing of Actaeon and Diana making love, while one of her aroused water-bearers (sporting a doe's tail) looks on. This portrait was not drawn specifically for me, as it appeared before I became well-known on the 'net as Actaeon. However, TOR has granted me permission to display it here, along with the full size version (928x768, grayscale, 59K). This sketch is a perfect representation of how I see my character, and it is included here as a guideline for other artists (that's a hint, BTW :). TOR is one of my favorite furry artists (he draws _incredibly_ accurate elk and deer), and I am happy to announce that he is accepting commissions. If you're interested, visit his website, which I designed for him.

### "Hi" ("hi.jpg"; one-half actual size)

by Mr. Unicorn, 1997 -- 213x255, grayscale, 15K.

A sketch of his character greeting mine. I like the musculature in this one, and the avoidance of obvious sexual overtones. It's very subtle, but there is a glance shared between the two characters that appears to be more than friendship? There is also a question as to where Mr. Unicorn's left hand is; perhaps that's the reason for the glance. :) Click here to see the original (426x510, grayscale, 54K).

### "deer-man1.jpg" (one-third actual size)

by "Mask", 1997 -- 231x264, color, 17K.

A 3D shaded rendering of Actaeon with his bow and arrows. The head and antlers are from a shape library, but the bow and arrows were hand-designed. Click here to see the original (700x800, color, 52K).
