Artist's Comments

[Edit]So, you all remember the original version of this? When it was just the mud-cracked ground? Yeah... well That got boring.
I updated this, obviously. *gasp* GROUND! I thought it looked better with the image, for those who remember, what do you think?[/Edit]
The days grow longer...
And I, in my own sweet pain grow stronger...
I must admit, it's a good insane

For *devils-horizon. Just some giftart. I was looking at her character and figured he was just studly and I'd love to try manipulating him.

Music inspiration was "Insomniatic" by Aly and Aj. The song matched what I wanted to do for this image just perfectly.

This was a little bit of practise for me... I painted both the mane and tail from scratch. It's highly possible that I'll upload just the horse that I did for this. I spent a LOT of time on the horse. I took off all the tack (check the stock image. My *mother* would be proud of me), cloned out the mane and tail, painted in a new one, changed one of the hoof color to fit to *devils-horizons description (You can't see it in this image.), and then manipulated each individual mark. I think I spent about 20 minutes just on the muzzle and face. *pats self* I was quite happy that I was able to do it.
I hope this is what Kitanii looks like... Vicki, if there's something wrong, please let me know.

Could be your screen.. on mine I can see it fine.
But yes, it is meant to be quite dark ;D

Thanks honey :hug:
Yeah, i'm generally an arab kinda gal, but lately i've been in love with paints. I think it's because they're so casual. They're very easy to manip with as well :)

They're not actually. I found a way to smudge them without losing the paint-look. I may make a tutorial out of it.
