Wow, pretty good!
Did you paint the mane/tail yourself?
Just a couple things.
1. Maybe the shadow should be a little darker-it looks a bit too pale.
2. You should probably try making the forelock and tail a bit thicker and more natural looking. (I can find you some tutorials on this if you're interested)
3. You could try increasing the contrast on the background, and maybe adding a little bit of a color overlay/tone to the horse, to make it fit in a little better. Though it's almost prefect as it is.
Aaaand... I think that's it! Or that's all I can see, anyways. Nice job on this, and I'll be looking foreward to seeing more from you in the future!
And by the way, what font did you use for the name? I love it!
-Silver

Thanks a ton!
I did paint the mane/tail myself this is only my 5th time doing so though.
ive been trying to find some mane/tail brushes that work in my photoshop because non of them seem to for some reason so I have to paint every hair myself (hence the thiness of the tail)
ive been working with blending techniqes trying to find some that highlight but also blend the horse in
also ive been working on oainting the eyes to give them that glasy effect but i cant seem to get it
The font i used for the name is called Tall Paul and i just put a clear plastic and glow effect on it.
Again thanks for the review its really helpfull! :3

Aha. They're quite nice! I actually have never used mane and tail brushes, since I find mine to be better when I hand-draw them, so I can't give you any advice with that, sorry! I always paint every little hair, and I admit, it takes a while.
Ah, yes. Hopefully you'll find a technique that works for you. Hmm... eyes. I've found a pretty awesome tutorial for that, it's the one I learned from. Here it is: [link]
Coolio, I'll take a look at it! Hahahaha my font collection os ever-expanding.
No problem! I always love it when people review mine, so I figured I'd take the time to do it to someone else.
