A random Andalite, Maybe it's Ax? WHO KNOWS?!?
Again I broke a few conceptions that I already had placed about the Andalites from my childhood. Mostly I based what they look like off of the cover art, so in my head they looked like centaurs with no mouths and stalk eyes. We all know that isn't right!
She says often that they have the body of a deer. I kind of took this further, I like to think they are lanky and quick, so I based the Andalite body off of the gerenuk and used a reference ([link])
At one point when Cassie is describing Ax she says that you wouldn't even think about riding them because the back slopes down. I tried to get that in there too.
And of course the all important tail. I think the spike is probably part of the vertebrae so it would extend out the end instead of the side. That's my opinion though, so yeah.
Last, when I was a kid I used to think they had eight fingers on each hand. I have no idea why I thought this because I can't find anywhere that says the number of fingers, only that they have to many, so I just gave him six on each hand.
WOOO ANIMORPHS!

Ahhh, what fabulous-looking creatures. =] I was never actually really into Animorphs (there was a TV show, wasn't there? I think I watched that a bit, maybe), even though it seems sometime that would have been right up my alley as a kid. (Or even now.) Still, I've always been completely in love with these andalite things. So gorgeous. (Well, I have to admit, I'm rather fond of any centaur-like creatures.) And I like how very deer-like yours here is. ^__^
