Artist's Comments


EDIT: Lightened the image and added more shadowing to the darker areas. Much prefer this version! :D


Drawn for a friends birthday of the mare she rides Aurora - a particularly moody Connemara mare who is full sister to Cirrus (doesn't look or act a thing like him though!) :D

Comments/critique greatly appreciated! :]

Very Different Shading Technique Than I Usually See But Works Well, It Would Be Better With A Different Colour Background Because It's Difficult To See The Forelock And Mane Lol
But Very Good Work!:)

OMGYAY.

Thank you, the black background was intentional; I was going for slightly dramatic shadowing. If your screens a bit dark you won't be able to see it all that well, it's fine on my mac monitor but a tad dark on my pc lol. Ah well... :D

That's beautiful...especially the eye =) the shading is great too... =)
I can't really brighten my monitor at all..I could brighten it like 4% or something. But it looks fine I think, me thinks I can see all the details...this monitor is a Daewoo anyway ;P

Even the strong willed can give into the biddings of evil, and become ensnared by the chains of conniving puppeteers who longed to break the very spirits of the poor unfortunate souls.

Really good , I love how subtle and soft your shading is. What a beautiful eye! I love the black background too , adds lots of depth. :D

I would never guess she was Cirrus' sister! I know a full brother and sister who are brown and chestnut too. :XD:
