Need a font, please help

hey, i'm looking for a dingbats type font, particularly one character, i need a pegasus (horse with wings) the needs to be a good looking font, looks good when it's larger, decent pose, and not too detailed, but not just a silouette.

if someone can help i'll do my best to return the favour..

thanks

Couldn't you just find a pic of what your looking for and turn it into a path with the pen tool?

nah, doesn't really have to be a font... come to think of it, there's no real reason accept that it'll be free from most detail, i really only want a Silhouette with basic detail... you know what i mean?

Its not that hard to create a silhouette from a bitmap or vector image and it'll probably be easier to find for free. I searched google anf found these straight away.

I can draw one for you. Give me 24 hours.

Get an example of my art -- Go look at my DA page and look at Aljan -- I'll make it less detailed than that but yeah basic idea.

Yeah, gimme 24 hours, and you will have your pegasus.

just as feathery as ever

hey, that's a pretty good drawing, althought it's a unicorn, not a pegasus... still, it's a pretty darn good drawing, you don't have to draw one for me, i've used the one from lectrospin, (top link) but if your's is better then i might use it...

btw, the one on that link is pretty much what i was looking for, so don't go to any trouble
