Can I post my pic I drew of Mazzelh here? It's better than my Strop fanart!

Ah I get frustrated when I can not draw like this >:O

Teach me

Ok...I think this is a mazzelh...



What do you think?

KIngRyan

lol, ur the Ninja Pony, and your thinking we're checking you out. Thus you kinda HAVE to approve of bestiality right?

Lol, kingryan, that's awesome.
It does lack the tail, but still~<3

Strop and thoad... Quit being off topic or take it to my random Zoph infested art thread... This is for mazzelh, not cross dressing ponies.
Yeah, there actually is a topic. I miss the first many pages where everyone was trying to find stuff out about them. Now people know, and random things happen...

I just went through all of the pages, and saw some awsome stuff I missed he first time around.

@Zoph

Poor little Zophia. ;P I know what you mean..

Hey Zoph, You think it would be cool if I mad a Philzzelh?

Just getting permission.

I was thinking of putting the awesome Phil hat on it, putting on the Phil eyes, and giving it the rad Phil hair(Really short under the hat).

This is gonna be sweet!

@kingryan:
Oh well, it's still really cute.

@slliM:
Sure, just go ahead!! I'll look forward to seeing it. :3

Aw, but surely it's not wrong to show the pony some love

thoad. Topic. Nao.

I got giftart from someone who's not on AG, but I got permission to post it here:

Finally something that isn't just randomness vaguely related to the critters.
*considers pounce-hugging Cholokid, but decides against it in case he'd get scared off*

I can't remember if it has been asked here either, but yes, I did create the mazzelhs, they are not inspired by anything otherwise known in particular, and it took a few years before anyone else drew a mazzelh. :3
Do you want the lame story of their original IRL origin?

Oh thank god you didn't pounce on me. I would have had to use my new tazer

Uh sure, I would like the non-lame story of their original IRL origin.

:P
When I was twelve or thirteen or something like that, I was really busy with creating lots and lots of creatures for my fantasy world, Yaltama. At some point I found out it was possible to base designs off of people's characteristics - both physical and mental. So I did a bunch of such designs, with varying success. Specie name then derived from the name of the person.
The best ones are probable the aekrael (or ecrel) and the mazzelh. The aekrael was based on my best friend back then, Laerke (sadly lost contact with her later on), and is a bird like critter.
The mazzelh is based on myself, actually. The name derived from 'mig selv' which is the Danish term for 'myself', and mazzelh is just different enough for it not to be obvious.
So yeah, mazzelhs started out as something quote personal to me. I can analyze their physical design and why I made it that way, if anyone wants me to.
Later on, they developed as a specie away from my personality, so now it's just Yazz who's sort of me. :3
