Description

exit wounds..
“..and it hurts so bad that i search my skin
for the entry point, where love went in
and ricocheted and bounced around
and left a hole when you walked out yeah...”

I can't imagine what anyone would nitpipck about this piece. It's better than anything the majority of folks on DA could do.

The only thing I wonder is how he got those wounds.

Apart from the blood being darker...this is just 'wow'. It's very emotional, beautiful, and I hope that you find what it is you're looking for.

This is a very emotionally wrenching piece.... So many thoughts come out of this; it's quite tear-jerking. Beautiful work, as always.

ElitexAlmond [2010-10-22 15:35:57 +0000 UTC]

amazing, really those wings are beautiful!
some liiiiittle tips: I think the rocks around the horse are a little bit to blurry, now the sharp blood & hoofs are a bit strange to the background.
and maybe the blood could be a bit darker? but maybe that's a matter of taste
except of those tiny thingies; absolely amazing!

Your work has always been my source of encouragement-
even if my tablet it dead, I still see myself manipulating, your pictures

I am in awe- and I adore that song too.

This is so amazingly beautiful. I am always impressed with what you create. <3

I did have a question though. Where is the wound supposed to be, or is it more of a...metaphorical (not sure if that's the word I'm looking for ) thing?

Mondwolf [2010-10-21 23:10:34 +0000 UTC]

That's such a emotional work ... I really really like it Specially the placement of the wings is great!
Only the blood on the pegasus' right foreleg, above the hoof ... well I miss some darker or lighter parts to add more depth to the running blood.
But this little thing will never ruin this beautiful manipulation!
