Description I will miss this little horse greatly. First time I showed him at Grade 3 Level, He jumped out of the dressage arena. Also he kicked an olympic cross country rider in the leg for no reason other than he felt that she was invading his personal space. Ah, Good times.

A quick little thank you gift to his owners who allowed me to exercise and show thier lovely and slightly crazy horse, Indiana.

Whoa, crazy muscles D:
Also I scanned this crooked, and didn't notice until I had uploaded it

Stunning how long do your pencils last before you have to sharpen them again?

Leafsong In reply to Fox-Whisky [2009-07-13 12:57:07 +0000 UTC]

Not very long, I cheated slightly and used water paint over the top to get a smooth colour with darker hints so wouldn't have to use my pencils too much.

That's how I feel too. I also feel terrible because I know I am treating them badly but I suppose it's the only way I can learn how to use them better.

Beautiful horse!

Gorgeous coloring, I love especially how you have colored edges between brown and white markings. Lovely details! Eye is also great and that jewelry on mane.

He is cute enough until you are in the same paddock as him, then he is just plain evil
