As this version is watermarked to prevent stealing of the character, I would suggest looking in ~Lenval 's gallery for a clean version if you want to use it for reference purposes (if she decides to upload it

Wow, he's a beauty. I love his cute markings; great job with the Clydesdale and Appaloosa idea.
I reall like this one, what an amazing design!
His little story is sad, though. The poor guy is blind.
this turned out amazing. Another incredible piece!

Haha thanks Sometimes it seems to take more or less time to shade, and mostly that just depends on my mood and how fast I can be bothered to work

Aww thank you, I'm so glad you like it The anatomy was quite tricky with him since his build is both heavy and slim with influence of Arabian aswell.

What a pretty character! I love his blanket. Always love these steel colors in horses, too... well done as usual.

He's a real charmer and treat to draw I've always liked grey colours in horses too, after buckskins

Are there any kinds/colors of horses you don't like to draw? Buckskins are so pretty...I love them as well. And palominos. But then, I'm a fan of anything that stands out...not that there's anything wrong with a bay, but there are just so many of them.

Of course I like to draw all colours for horses, I mean, they all look gorgeous in their own way, but when seeing a horse in real life, I think buckskins are definitely my favourites, which is why I prefer to draw them The only things I'm not too sure about drawing are like, neon-type colours and others that scream for attention

True, true. Especially when you do it well. I love the striping buckskins have...and their faces...yeah, they're pretty epic. xD Oh, you mean like pink and black with a green neon mane and sparkly hooves that spell out "KaNdY?"
