Description For =arrsistable 's wonderful contest! This represents pride, and if you can't tell why, it is the pride of one's world/home/land whatever you like to call it Enjoy, more description to come later because I've worked on this for 8 hours straight -cringe- and 3:15 a.m. sounds like bedtime to me.
Ew, I need a new title mannnn..

Would anyone be interested in a wallpaper, and if so what dimensions?

All that time you spent on this was definitely worth it! This is incredible. It takes my breath away. And I can't believe that the horse is comprised of two separate images! You did a great job of blending them, and the horn, together. It looks very realistic. I also love all the detailing.. the lighting, the prints in the sand.. yeah, I'm pretty much in love with this.

Thank you I believe 1200x800 is widescreen, 1200x1024 is square... I'll put them both in

Nuttert In reply to romino4000 [2008-08-03 12:47:53 +0000 UTC]

I don't have a widescreen, I think 1200x1024 would fit..
Thank you

Nuttert In reply to Nuttert [2008-08-08 15:50:17 +0000 UTC]

I noticed.. The right foreleg doesn't seem to fit on the horse.. It looks like it's beginning too far to the back and.. like to high? (Bad english XD,, Think you'll understand)
And also I think that the left ear isn't totally on the right place as well as the leg..

But that are just little things, of witch I think not many people would notice..

Romino!!! wow! This is by far your BEST work I have seen yet. It looks like you painted the entire thing from scratch. You style is flawless, the mane, tail and background just bring it all together perfectly. I'm honestly just staring at this. Do you plan on making graphic design a career? If you do, you will go far in it!

Also I would be really intrested in a desktop, mine is 1280x800px

This is just beautiful.
The colours are perfect, and you did great work on the ground around the horse's feet! My fav part of this is the mane and tail, though! They're beautiful. Did you draw them in, or smudge? He looks very proud to me!
