Description This is Cymbaline. She has actually been a character of mine for a few years, I'd have a few sketches of her in my notebook every once in a while. Now I'm bringing her to life.

I am SO unhappy with the background. It makes everything look barbie-ish or like a my little pony scene. It was intended to look somewhat like this: [link] but it just looks pansy-ish. Anywhoo... So I think I'll make another background. :/

Cymbaline is a Pink Floyd Song I am in love with. I'm not too thrilled with the recorded version, but this version: [link] is simply amazing. My husband (david gilmour) is so sexy. :3 Theres another version of this when they're in pompeii... Its just a sound check/rehearsal thing, but get this! the guys are half naked! And totally hot. love it.

On to the horse...

wideturn In reply to Hazel-rah [2010-08-16 01:59:53 +0000 UTC]

I used a few different refs on the body color, and added a kinda pink to the eyes and hooves.. I used a few different rose grey ponehs since the background's pink. Thought it'd go better. If i can round up all the refs ill post em. thanks :3

Ah, okay. Thanks. I was just wondering about this one, because the pose/color looks quite similar. I thought I had seen it somewhere before.

mhm the pose and stuff is from a halter andy thing i found on google a million years ago... I have no idea where to find it.. Its still on my computer at home though, i think. When I get home I could round some stuff up for you. ;D

sVa-BinaryStar [2010-05-27 22:25:57 +0000 UTC]

Wow. Amazing. The only thing that makes it look barbie-ish is the butterflies. But really the background is what caught my attention. If it was a different bg I might have passed it up as "just another white horse" But it makes it stand out so that I had to come see. I think bringing out the clouds and glitter just a tiny bit more and scratching the butterflies would be good for it but really it's great how it is. As for the horse, she's one of the most beautiful horses I've seen in the harpg world. You did amazing on the mane and tail, I cant get over the high light details. I need someone to teach me a technique for drawing braids. Do you delete your line art and clean up your edges? or do you color the lineart belending it with the horse? Just wondering because the edge of your horse is so smooth and perfect. All in all I adore this picture and makes me what a Pura Raza Espanola Andalusian even though I'm not sure what that is.

wideturn In reply to sVa-BinaryStar [2010-05-28 00:07:00 +0000 UTC]

Lol thank you so much I actually draw the lines, then set them to 30% opacity and color. then, I turn the visibility on the lines off and touch up the edges. And yea, the butterflies are a bit pansy. And thanks so much, I love how dapple greys look, it makes me all the happier to think someone thinks she's pretty too ^^

Nice, I might try that next time if that's okay. I've been wondering how people get such good edges.

Hey, its not a bad thimg to use other peoples' techniques. it makes you all the better artist to be able to do other techniques IMO so of course its ok
