Description
Now I guess I have tried all three types of horses. Black ones, brown ones, white ones. What is there more to explore...
My entry for 's The 80's Ultimate Contest which ends today!
[Edit: As I learned later on, it was extended for another 2 weeks! So, get it on
Yes, it's She-ra. I'd love to send in more 80s-themed fanarts, but I miscalculated the time left.
And even here I should have spent some more time on doing it properly. There are many flaws because I had to rush so much for hitting the deadline
But have you ever noticed how "plain" She-Ra looks like, esp. in the TV-series? I tuned her accessoires to be a bit more flashy. In addition to that very simple gladiator-valkyrie-style of hers, her horse bares a really really stupid set of colours
There are some major flaws in it, too - beside the minor ones that emerged out of my deadline rush. But I won't tell...
Coloured with:
Acrylics. Acrylics. Acrylics!

Glad I decided to look up vintage She-Ra fanart today.Β I like the "flow" of this.... the hair, the feathers.Β I mean, I can't help but think "technically, Swift Wind wouldn't be able to fly on feathers so thin, but so what, he's a magic alicorn, so pheh! The feathers are prettiful!"Β There's a high energy to this and I adore the textured gold background.Β Β

Nice. This show desperately needs to be remade.

I like your drawing! The design upgrade on She-Ra+horse's gear is very nice and I love the beautiful wings you gave the horse...

Can't say I know the show, but your style is very interesting, and the colours are nicely chosen.

Awesome work. Methinks though, that unless Swiftwind's flight is aided by magic, those wings would not be able to keep him aloft.

Thanks a lot!
It's magic. I mean, look at how he floats around in the series.
Even there Swiftie's wings would have to be a lot bigger . And he'd have some really big muscles around his shoulders which would surely destroy his horsey shape. Let's be realistic: horses will never fly. And as the name indicates: Tetrapods won't have additional wings.

It makes my blackened, nerdly little heart squirm happily in nostalgia. Excellent homage.

Great piece of art!
That dinamism, that hair floating in the air, the horse watching at the enemy...
