Description Ta Da! Here it is! Finally finished!

I altered the image somewhat of the horse from the photo. I widened the eye to make the horse look younger. Also I had to make up parts because the horse was wearing an elaborate bridle in the photo.
Iā€™m mostly happy with this. As always I can see flaws, but they are for me to obsess over and for you to ignore.

Original is 8.5/11", mechanical pencil on notebook paper. Blended with cotton balls (never done that before) and cleaned up with a kneaded eraser.

Please let me know what you think.

Great drawing, the shading on it is quite effective. Perhaps a little more attention to the mane area would emphasise a softer texture to the mane, as to me it looks a bit solid at the moment. The eye is lovely though, so dark and it really stands out

Thank you so much!
There is more shading in the mane on the original - it was lost in the scanning. I see what you are saying though. Thanks again!
