Description
I started back into Carousel illustration. If you continue looking at my works I'm also uploading a Roman Carousel design which was sort of the start. I was illustrating horses wearing roman bridles after the Marcus Aurelius horse and turned to doing a carousel.After that and another dragony one (which I'm inking now) I decided I should really do a Halloween one.
Now it doesn't -scream- Halloween... but the skulls and bones and the blackness of the horse do add a nice touch.
Also I noticed all my black carousel horses are kinda boxy/chunky beasts.
But yeah, used skull refs... horse anatomy refs... listened to/watched Stargate Atlantis episodes and Jim Henson's The Storyteller (WHICH IS AWESOME!) first season while I did this and the dragony one.
More to come!
I LUFFS DA BRUSH PENS!

I love the skulls and bones - I also love the front of the face very much - the skull mask with teeth is awesome - The hooves with spikes are also a nice touch.

Very nice, interesting piece of art, I do say so myself.
I envy the fact that you can draw skulls and shade. 
Anyways, I really like this piece
Good job!

I didn't really know how to until I had to. I started looking them up and it was one of those moments where you don't realize what they -actually- look like till you have to draw it XD

Carousel horses always scared me - don't know why. But this one looks pretty amazing. ^^
