Day 1

They had arrived at Ackerley EC the day before and ever since that Elyon had been a pain in the ass and he had probably been walking on his hindlegs more than on all four. So no one knew if they would ever be able to actually start but soon Ronja managed to get on th stallions back just before he bolted forward and kicked towards Victoria who had been helping her up. "Are you okey?" Ronja shouted to Victoria as she made her way to the warm up area, the stallion refusing to stop even once to actually allow Ronja to check up on her friend. "Yeah I'm okey!" She shouted back to Ronja and was glad she had managed to jump back before the stallions hoofs had swooshed by. They both knew the stallion was moody and for some reason when it came to compatitions he was horrible. There was to many horses around and he just lost his concentration.

When they soon was done and they got called to the arena Elyon had finally started to relax and get into focus. They got into the arena and the stallions ears flicked forward and he snorted, taking in the surroundings and atmosphere. When they got the starting signal the focused stallion turned into a runaway train, cantering at a high speed towards the first jump. When landing he squeeked and bucked a few times, almost shooting Ronja out of the saddle. But she managed to hang on and steer him towards the next jump.Β 

They made it through the whole course and took the last jump, crossed the finishline and just as she was about to get the stallion to stop he decided it was much more fun to make a half stop, buck Ronja out of the saddle and jump over her before taking a few rounds in full canter around the arena before they could stop the horse. At least she had finished the course before falling off, resultng in not loosing her spot...


Day 2
After what had happend the day before Sara was in a great pain, and to be honest, a bit scared that this would end the same way. She had been going on and off about how they would end up making a fool out of themselves and probably make a visit with he judges by falling off. But when she arrived to the stable it seemed as Elyon was a bit tired after the show jumping the day before. The stallion was calmer but he still had a lot of opinions about everything and more than once did he make Ronja aware that he didn't approve of the things she did. And just making the hoofs looks pretty took them almost an hour.

But the rest of the day went better than she could have imagen, sure Elyon was on the verge of exploding any second, but he did well, did what Ronja asked for during the whole dressage program. However it ended the same way, after they had left the dressage arena he soon decided it was a good time to bolt to the side, unseating Ronja again. But at least this time he was nice enough to stay.


Day 3
"That horse is crazy. I swear I have never ever been able to get out of the saddle on my own free will. He will probably end up unseating me into a jump today!" Ronja stomped her feet and pointed at the stallion who happily chewed on his hay. Victoria let out a loud sigh and rubbed her temples, amazed that even though this talk Ronja had decided to go through with it.Β 

Four hours later they were making their way through the course, Elyon cantering faster than she would ever had expected, or wanted. The stallion was making it way to fast over the field towards the next jump but Ronja had already decided there was no point in trying to slow down the small stallion. Whenever they reached a jump he simply solved it himself, bouncing over it with ease. However when reaching the water the stallion had started to get tired, making Ronja wonder if he would even make it over, hell if he would even want to jump. "Come on boy... We can do this." She petted the stallion on the next and the stallion jumped over, snorting and making it over.

They soon reached the goal and for the first time ever Elyon decided he was too tired to unseat her. He slowed down and lowered his head, stopping to eat instead. "Good boy! You're amazing!"

DalRiataStables In reply to NextToArt [2014-04-13 17:06:28 +0000 UTC]

As soon as there is markings or white horses included yes. But I never do it grey xD I either do it brown or the base colour of the horse

How do you do that?
I really admire your work and didn't think that you used grayscale because i didn't know that someone could make a grayscale so beautiful
You don't have a tutorial or something like that?

Yeah I've seen those images, I felt it was better to have more background and make it blend that way!
