Wowee! I truely loved working on this one - so much fun! Really, really pleased with how it came out. I've been itching to use this horse stock for a while and finally decided to do it yesterday. Rather than just vaguely blur the wing and body together, I decided to create a wing joint to try and make it look reasonable. Very exciting watching it all come together.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if this was really how lightning was made!
As always, crit and comments, faves and follows much loved and welcome. I'm particularly looking to increase my number of followers right now. If you like it, follow me, because there's only going to be more where this one came from! Enjoy!

Thanks for the comment. If you look on the stock, you can actually only see one wing properly, hence why I doubled up on that one. I'm always learning and now know things I need to improve on for next time!

Nice, but I would suggest looking at the wing farthest from the viewer. If the wing closest to us is spread outwards, then why is the other wing pointing straight up? The only way a pair of wings would ever be positioned in that manner is if the bird or winged creature is being buffeted by a particularly strong wind.
The concept is very nicely done though.

Thanks for your comment! Yes, I can see what you mean about the far wing. The only reason I had it like that is because if I put it in the 'right' position, you can barely see it! And I'm not a fan of the whole one wing look lol. Might move it down a smidge though

Of course! Thankyou very much for asking. It has a watermark hidden in it so I can prove it's mine if someone whips it, but as long as you only want it for your personal use, thats fine. Thankyou for your compliments and enjoy!

Naww you're so lovely! *blushes* I'm not that good really - there's always things to learn! The way I learnt was mainly just by looking at tutorials, watching joinme's, and practice. You can do it!

[link] ~ I just made that, it think I did a good job. It's truly the best mane I've done so far. But download it, the quality is terrible on DA.. e.e And yes you are!
