Animal Accuracy
In this image you can see my illustration with a goat and hornet as “supporting characters”, along side is the photo reference. It is important in this project that every detail is correct, so thanks to the power of the internet these things can be easily researched and drawn from photo references.
This is the breed of wild goat that would have been found in ancient Canaan, they do not look like the goats we are used to in the west. The same applies to the hornet, this brown hornet with two yellow stripes, called the Oriental Hornet, is the type found in that region.
