It would help more if I could actually draw a horse using a computer...I can draw decent horses using pencil and paper...

I've used this for sooo many pixels. XD All my newer ones are with this style, though probably altered a little. I'll spare you all the links. But thanks for this awesome tutorial, it's so helpful.

Bright-Button In reply to Equine-Dream [2013-11-08 14:05:05 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad you think so! Backgrounds are hard to make a tutorial of, I do a lot of random tracing for multiple images, then colour experimentation, tonnes of scribbling too, haha
