Description Pretend you care It makes me feel important.

it's my excuse as to why this drawing is taking me FOREVER!!
One horse is done, though, and the baby (this little guy :3) is almost done!

No, I've never drawn a horse before these two. Not really.
Horses have fucked up anatomy! :S

I still don't know how you see the shades/highlights when you're working with a coloured picture. Sure, you can still see highlights and stuff, but in that photograph you have, I think the colour of the horsey makes it real difficult to see the tones and such. But you did great, nonetheless! Just pointing out that it would have been easier--for me at least-- to work with a greyscale photo. :] but meh. just unimportant info I'm telling you because I can? x3 Yeahh, and you should have made your written text bigger. (: But oh well. Post the finished drawing now?! ;D AND FIX IT"S NECK, TOOO? DARRNIT. I WAS GOING TO DO THAT BUT I FORGOT. D: It's simple, too.. ou just need to fill in the spot on the left of it's neck a little more. :3 If people read this, they're gonna be like "what IS this girl talking about?!?!O____o" Teehee. It's fun to talk about stuff irrelevant to the actual drawing here :3 THough, it is KIND OF relevant. ^^

Yeah, some places were different shades of brown but were the same lightness/darkness level or whatever so I kind of went "ahh fuck D:" but I just kind of screwed around so there was a bit of a difference. It would have been easier with a greyscale image, totally
Well I originally had the whole thing twice the size and them I'm like "That's way too big.. *shrink*" so now it's a little too small oops.
Oh, yeah, I will post it and I GUESS I can fix the other horses neck.. but I'm going to fix it digitally for the one I already scanned because I'm lazy and I'll fix it the real way with the real image
Maybe And it IS relevant
