Thanks 
Right now I'm trying to work on my speed and without references, so apologies for the drop in general art quality for the near future. I'm looking forward to when I can do something like this in half the time

I totally understand that 
Speed is difficult, and for a while I was doing nothing but speed paintings, but now I am focusing in on detail. I kinda go back and forth, but the speed painting was really good to figure out blocking and general composition. As far as going without references... that... is tough. Best of luck to you, I'll be watching

I've gotten quicker over the years, but no-where near where I'd want to be...so I figured, a bout of speedy art and then go back to the more proper forms and see how much it'll have improved. Even if it's only a little, I can already tell that it will have helped. If nothing else, I'm having more of a chance to play with my brush-settings
You're definitely right about that...it's great for learning about the lighting as well...without worrying about messing up the finishing touches on a piece that has taken hours and hours. I think moving between the different states is a good thing. Always learning...and either of them doesn't get the chance to become boring.
Yeah...some more tricky poses I've caved in on already...but it's quite liberating...as long as I don't mind the art looking like it was made by me ten years ago

lol who needs hair anyways XD
I've been watching tutorials like crazy lately... I think I kinda thrive off of learning.
Keep up the good work though

You and me both. I will never stop learning...in any area of life. I'm too fond of expanding my horizons for that 
Thanks. Will try

That background is insanely epic; the horse fits in so well... Beautiful work!

Thanks, I'm really glad you like it. One day I'll be able to do something seriously epic, coming out of the screen, epic, but looks like this was a good step in the right direction. Thanks for the
