Yhis is a wonderful work! I particulary love the horse (nightmare, isn't it? Or I'm misunderstanding!)

Thanks!
I know nightmares as dark horses with fiery eyes and manes, so yes, it is the horse.

A beautiful artwork! The water is felicitous, as is Nightmare's fur and body.
Isn't Munin also the name of one of Odin's ravens? He's lovely, I like the green!

Thanks!
Yes, Munin is one of OdinΒ΄s ravens...I read the Edda a few years back and started to use the name in forums (unfortunately on dA it was already taken )...after a while I just had to imagine what a character matching the name would look like

That is one cool looking beach scene. The horse looks amazing, the dragon is adorable, and your oc has really awesome markings.

Also, nice job on the waves, they look really good.

Deadlines are evil, they make time go a lot faster. 8/
