Artist's Comments

Here is the final version of Horse VIII. Line art was done a long time ago, and then on friday I jsut took the whole day to shade it. Special thanks to :iconanthonydraco:, :icont3hflo0f3h: and :iconspottedpegasus: for their critique of the last draft. I fixed some proportions that was wrong with the eyes and went much darker than I usually go and smudged! ZOMG. I am VERY pleased with the final result. There are still a couple of things that could use some nit picking but I'm lazy, so I'm calling it done. For those interested, this is a pencil drawing done on vellum Bristol. A Kleenex was used for smudging. Sorry for the bad quality scan, it actually looks better in person.

Wow. You're just going through leaps and bounds. I knew you could do this. I think the eye and the forelock are my favorite part. though the subtle work of the vanes around the nose are beautiful too.

thanks, I took your advice and fixed some things. I think I'm learning to be more adventurous in going darker, smudging and drawing bigger.
