Commission work.
Failed everything, but oh how I tried. The large format really messed with my head...and my horse drawing skills are rusty as hell, ugh.

Thank you!

This is really rather well done apart from one thing. That is the rider torso is a large for the horse that aside you've rendered this beautifully. While I know the focus is on the horse and rider I do think the best part of the artwork is the trees. Anyone who faults your horse drawing skills is knit picking, believe me I know the image you've used very well while there are discrepancies these are the result of taking a horse and making it a pony. Ah lastly thank you so such for using my stock

Ah yes, I’ve not drawn humans for quite a while and it is my weak point. There’s a lot of room for improvement (:
I’m really glad someone noticed the change from horse to pony. I struggled quite a lot with it. Thank you kindly for the through feedback, I really appreciate it!

Really like ink drawing!

Nice trees, snow and shadows. About horse: perfect, especially hair (tail). But the rider.. I think he/she is a little disproporcjonal, the legs are fine but the rest of body is too big.
But.. respect for your work!

Ah yes, that I noticed once I was half way through inking. Human anatomy is not my strongest side. There’s a lot of room for improvement.
I’m glad you like the rest though, and thank you for the comment. It’s always nice and refreshing seeing some critiques among the usual comments

Failed everything my rear end! Nice job. There is always something an artist sees and wants to improve but this is a beautiful piece. Caught my eye I can tell you that.

Haha, I'm glad you like it, thank you!

You're right, I often get distracted with all the mistakes I’d like to fix...

This is gorgeous! I love the horse's expression.

*Qirai Dec 22, 2012 Student General Artist
