I think she is
They are but you're right, I get a lot of practice with them between the Transformed and the Centaurs
Next OC Training is going to be interesting . . . looks like I'm going to do a character from my sci-fi story. No horses

Nice. *w*
Oh really! O.O I think that's a first!

I think this turned out lovely! I'm especially impressed with the horses, since they're so hard to draw x3

Thank you! They are tricky, I'm getting better but I still have to look at references (especially for those legs 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Using references is totally fine, though.
No one can draw everything from memory~

Funniest part though, I've gotten so used to horse legs that I have a hard time with dog/cat legs now 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh no =o
I think drawing cat/dog legs is very fun~

It is . . . but you get used to one thing and it's harder to do other stuff (at least for me
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
wow, first off, I loove the horses!! Can't draw them for the life of me so I'm ever-amazed by people who can haha
They look like they're enjoying themselves 
The background is super nice as well, especially love the wall lol
Great job!!

Horses are one of those things that you just have to draw a lot to get better at. I'm still not at the point I'd like to be on those legs, but it gets better every time
Thank you! This was a fun crossover for a lot of reasons

WOW this artwork is amazing! You cared all the details and the horses are very beautiful

One of the few ways to travel fast in my world

Woah, nice work! I love all the detail you put into this!

Lovely work on the horses and I love how they're enjoying their time together!

This turned out fantastic! I love all the little details that you did with the background!

She looks smug, and he looks entertained, and her horse is looking at me funny XD Nice work!

Nicely done, I like how his horse has a braided mane, and that you gave the other Jace a pony cause she's short.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I figured the Captain would have a horse with a braided mane and tail, seemed right
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah. that makes sense, I can see now why the Europeans called rabians ponies in the crusades, they do look like ponies compared to large warhorses. I've had plenty of experience with those big draft horses back when I was a renfair squire, they love to stand on your feet.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Exactly!
Oh ouch. That's a lot of hoof on a foot

Lovely work! I really like how you did the horses!

I feel compelled to address one part of your description scientifically: "Doumerlas has some pretty odd geography, being a very fertile kingdom on the edge of a supposedly impassible desert, so there's a lot of very interesting and beautiful rock formations I always imagine the painted desert tossed down right next to Ireland. Green against red desert rock. With a lot of stone architecture to add to the oddness. "
First, "supposedly impassible desert". Of course, the degree to which terrain is impassible depends on your investment and technology. For example, the Ancient Egyptians couldn't travel long distances through the Sahara as they lacked camels, forcing them to use donkeys that consume 4 times more water. Once camels were introduced to Africa, caravans across the Sahara trading gold, salt, ivory, and slaves started up. If the Doumerlatians(?) have camels or camel analogues, then an impassible desert would have to be even larger and even more arid than the Sahara. That doesn't mean that they would spend the effort to cross a smaller desert—for instance, you can cross the Darién Impenetrable Rainforest on wheels, you "just" need some ATVs, a lot of spares and supplies, a lot of vaccinations, a machete, and a month or two... but would you?
Secondly (addressing the main point), most true deserts are surrounded by semi-arid areas which, while in some locations are well suited to grazing, are typically not moist enough to support arable agriculture of all but the most drought-hardy of crops. There are a couple of exceptions—or apparent exceptions—to that rule. The first examples are locations like Commerson Crater on Réunion, Rangiroa in New Zealand, and certain locations in the highlands of Iceland. All of these are relatively barren, with visible erosion and little vegetation, yet are surrounded by verdant areas. This is because they are all recent volcanic landscapes and actually experience so much precipitation that vegetation cannot become established in the exposed rock. Areas further behind the mountains of Doumerlas could be truly arid.
The second example is the Loess Plateau in China. While this does indeed have a climate that borders between humid and semi-arid, the monsoon rains in the summer provide ample rain for agriculture and make the area green in summer, unlike mediterranean areas with similar precipitation which typically have a semi-arid character in the summer. However, the fertile soil of the area is highly erodible—indeed, it is a primary source of the 黄河's namesake yellow mud—so much of the area is badlands, either natural or created through poor farming practices. To the east lies the fertile North China plains, to the west the steppes and deserts of the Gobi.
That said, I like really like how you portrayed Pembrooke and Pyrs. Seeing her on a horse makes her seem more, *ahem* down to Earth.

*cracks knuckles* I love these kinds of questions because I get to go into detail.
To address your first point, everyone in the known world assumes that the desert is impassible because no one has come from it nor has anyone who has entered it ever returned in recorded history. Not to say that in the future it might be traversed, but there is something decidedly odd and eerie about the desert. As my character Yokov once observed - The desert stretched off to the east of them and was visible from the road. It wasn’t a gradual shift but an abrupt change from forest to rock and then deep barren trenches and canyons as far as the eye could see beyond. They said it was caused by the Gods’ War many many years ago. Nothing grew in the desert and nothing lived there. Rivers either stopped abruptly at the border, went underground, or skirted the outer borders of it like a protective barrier. It was said that no one who had tried to cross the desert had ever returned to say what was beyond it, if there was anything beyond, and no one had ever come from the desert indicating there was anyone living there. Nothing could grow on that hard, rocky ground either. Farmers had tried and failed and finally given up.
Addressing your second point I need to reference the above excerpt. This is not a “natural” desert, but one that came into existence due to extreme magical upheaval about 300 years ago. Before that, it was a temperate rainforest (but no mortal knows that, only the world’s gods
All of this makes me realize that I really need to make a map of my world, just to show how weird the whole situation is. Also to show that many of the geographical features look suspiciously like huge giants got smashed into the ground

OK. Magic out-sciences science, I guess.
Hmm, looking forward to your story! And I liek maps...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Magic can mess up science something fierce. One of the reasons I love knowing geography as well as I do, I know exactly what would be incredibly abnormal
Thanks. I like looking at maps. Hate attempting to draw them
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. Anyway, thanks.
BTW, I'm planning on joining OC-training whenever my conventional art skills are good enough. If you're still working on the stories and world of Wayu by then... there may be quite a contrast (the world I'm developing is about as hard and materialist as they come).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cool! OC Training is awesome
I'll probably be working on my Wayu stories until I die (started thirteen years ago and they just keep going

Oh really... I've been working on It's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow for 2 years (the aforementioned universe) and Àli Dãn Celec (my longest-lived universe and a bit less of a mundane one) for 8 years. But then again, I'm 18, not... however old you are.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Don't believe me? Or just surprised?
But yeah, I'm old enough to be your mother 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
A bit surprised, but the "..." was to signal that I was giving you a llama and watching you without actually saying it. Thanks for the reciprocal watch, BTW.

This is so fun! I love that the two Jace's teamed up! What are the odds that there would be two with the same unique name!
They look like they're enjoying themselves. Nice job on the horses too!

Funny coincidence, especially since they're even different genders
Thank you!

That's awesome that the two Jaces got to meet! 
I love that they both are really happy.

I love how you did the grass and shadows. You did amazing! ^v^
