Artist's Comments

For ~Alliecat50's contest. [link]

We were supposed to design the father of her mare, Ruby. Here's my entry.

Okay, I can't lie, I'm really proud of this. C= I can never seem to draw horses running forward, and I hate shading and coloring black horses traditionally (it's just such a strong color... I always smudge it), AND YET I did both in this picture and I don't think it's half bad. C=

Uhm... Since only three legs are showing, the other hind leg looks just like the one showing. And those little red line and little things fading into black.

OH. And I like the idea of her father having green eyes. C= Probably because I have green eyes and I got them form my dad. ^^

So yes. C= I, personally, like the design. I hope you do, too, Allie! :hug: And sorry it's so late!

Picture and design (c) to me.

How wonderful! I really like this pose, although, I suggest adding some gray to the body, the black would look thicker then. C= :heart:

Thanks!

I'll try adding grey next time, if I can find one. (My pencils only have a metallic silver in the thick-lead variety that I used to color this, and a really light grey in the thin-leaded that doesn't really help much with it.)

Yeah, it is. XDD But these pencils are pretty good about it. Hey, colored pencils are much easier thank ink! (Ink's SO hard to blend right!)
