Tooth Fairy

A creature that won't be in my fantasy world or that I plan to draw but found very interesting was the Tooth Fairy. It is a very interesting mythological character, in that it doesn't have a particular set image like Santa Clause or the Easter Bunny. The reason I chose to do a quick research into it is genuine curiousness and the "Rise of the Guardians" (2012) film's fresh approach and unique portrayal of the Tooth Fairy.

Despite for the tooth fairy not having a set visual, a majority study on children vote that they picture it as a female, and as a small winged creature. A quick search on the Tooth Fairy will bring up many blonde young kids, with fairy wings wearing a pink dress. So the most opposite version to this is:

Dwayne Johnson's portrayal is the polar opposite everything we're used to. The only thing mildy resembalence (visually) is his wings, which even then are incorrect and resemble feathered angel wings as apposed to insect fairy wings. This was however, a negatively received character. Does this relate to how certain cliches must be in place to make the viewer familiarize with the fantasy character? Despite The Rise of the Guardians not being out yet, the films characters have been praised and a large fan base is growing online.

To make the Tooth Fairy half human half bird is interesting and unusual. It is a very unique design, and the colours used are not usually associated with Tooth Fairies. Her appearance however fits with her back story,  and her regal status is seen in the elegant design of a 'dress-like' feathers and royal tones. Her personality is of a kind bubbly girl, again fitting with the theme of a girly fairy. 

She doesn't look like the conventional Tooth Fairy, but has been re imagined and accepted, and is an incredibly cute and new out-look on a mythological character.

Just some fun research of my own :) Back to Proposaling!
