Description
My half of an art trade with the lovely Laughing-Kelpie . This is her gorgeous boy Brocair who took me down memory lane to the times when all I drew were colourful fantasy equine OC's
Make sure to check out her half too c:
So, I had an entirely different pose for this "military man" in mind at first, but when I sat down to sketch him, I was feeling up to a more serene setting instead, so I went with that.
This image makes me so happy, you have no idea. It's been such a long time since I last found the perfect combination of inspiration, motivation and time to draw something like this. I missed it <3
Hope you like him too gorgeous-face, he was such a joy to work with! Thank you so much for doing this art trade with me.

Such an wonderful piece! What coloured pencils do you use?

Thank you <3
I use a variety of them, but mainly I use Faber-Castell's Polychromos, along with Art Grip to work out the finer details that require a more sharpened lead. Some times I also borrow my sister's collection of Derwent pencils, but Faber-Castell is my go-to brand. I highly recommend Polychromos, though they're on the expensive side!

OH MY GOD.
This is absolutely stunning; you work so fast! o: I'm late commenting because I kept coming back to it and staring.Β
I love the contrast between his colours and the background, and the beautiful flowing movement to his tail. He looks so playful and full of life and action, I can just see him getting excited and frisking around in the snow

Haha, this might be the first time someone calls me fast regarding my artwork 
I'm so glad you think I did him justice, that's about the best compliment I can get
