Description Breeding image of *cheddarbug 's two beautiful Cavittos, Chelem (left) and Artemisios (right).
I'm so excited for this foal, I can't even...

I absolutely adore how this one came out. This is the first completely shaded and colored work I've done since February 2012. I must admit I kept being afraid of ruining the sketch, I still feel very rusty!
It's been a while since I've said I was proud of something, but I can definitely say it again with this one.

Unfortunately, something has to go wrong in some way, I used glitter glue to make Art's Fallen Stardust, and it looks so freaking cool in person, but the scanner completely ruined it by making the glitter black D: I tried to get a photo that was decent enough to be uploaded instead of the scan, but no luck. In the end, I decided to add the stars in Photoshop and link to a photo that shows the glitter effect.

I hope you like it, Cheddar! And thank you for giving me the opportunity to have a foal out of these two <3

Whoa, this is awesome!
I love the whole scene; how they're gliding among the clouds so lightly.
Your coloring and shading is beautiful and the way you edited glitter looks really nice - it looks like glowing!

Looking forward to see the foal!

Ehrmahgawd.... This is stunning! I utterly adore this. The horses are beautifully shaded, so full of life and color. And their manes/tails look amazing. The background compliments them very well. This is a gorgeous piece of artwork, and I love that you used traditional media. Makes me want to go open my box of coloured pencils (which sadly has gone unused for a few years).

Really really lovely!

Amg, thank you so much for such a wonderful comment! It really means a lot to me You're such an awesome artist :3

Ah hun, you are so welcome - it's very deserved.

Yeah, I need to practice traditional art again. I always do my sketches, and sometimes lineart traditionally, but tend to color digitally (where the CTRL+Z saves my color-mistake-prone bootie). Must learn to use that "crutch" less. Hmmmm, time to brainstorm a traditional project.

PolarisAstrum In reply to ReQuay [2013-06-04 10:21:45 +0000 UTC]

Oh, yes. ctrl+z is definitely a digital artist's best friend xD I'll be looking forward to seeing it!
