Description “All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.” - Richard Adams, Watership Down

Got inspired after watching this movie the other day so I wanted to make something related to it featuring a new OC, yet nameless, of mine. 

The background and the quote was taken from the movie Watership down.

Lovely design I always appreciate when stories don't pull punches like with Watership down lol One of my favorites even today.

Thank you! ^^ Yes I absolutely agree! Watched it for the second time recently and I got so inspired from it. It really is beautiful and poetic yet very dark, which is why I like it so much  <3

No problem! Have you read the book? The movie is very loyal but (naturally) has to cut things out for time constraints and moves things around to fit the shorter narrative. 
Richard Adams was a master storyteller! I wish he'd been able to write more.

If you like dark tragedies, Plague Dogs is another one of his works made into a movie by the same people who did Watership Down. Be warned though, it's not a happy movie, at the very most it's bitter sweet and it has some really messed up moments. But (surprisingly) its not as graphic as Watership Down lol

I haven't read the book but I really want to!! I've heard the film is similar but reading often gives you a deeper understanding of the story so I will definitely read it someday ^^

I've watched that movie as well! Though it got so dark and disturbing that I couldn't bare to finish it... I'll watch it again someday though, I need to see it all XD

Same! I started reading some years back but had to give it back to the library before I could finish it and just haven't gotten back to read it again since. One thing I remember most from the book was that there were a lot more stories of El-ahrairah and a lot more use of Lapine words.


Right? It's seriously emotionally draining and makes you want to hug a puppy!

I understand, I also usually need more time to finish a book and live always seem to get in the way.. Oh that sound interesting! I kind of missed that in the movie, I wanted to know more about the belief and legends behind everything instead of just going through it very briefly. 

Yes indeed! It felt so awful to watch the poor dogs struggle, especially since I've got dogs myself! It got so close to heart :'c

I think the audio book is on youtube, haven't listened to it but it's something to look into. That's how I get to enjoy any books these days at least lol
Yeah same! It's nice they sprinkled it in the movie like they did but I wish they'd done it more.

Yeah, exactly.

Yes I feel the same way.
