I'm on a roll! Two in one week, I don't think I have managed that in the past 3 years. I am having way too much fun with meaningless markings. Does anyone want a tutorial on how I do them? Let me know, I should have a good chunk of time on my hands now that it is winter break.
It's a nice piece for sure, but there are a few flaws. They're not huge, but overall I think they do lessen the impact of the total piece. First off I'd like to say you have the bones for a great manipulation here, I commend your vision (:
Now one thing I must mention is the proportions, they feel a little off to me, like the horse is a model horse or something O.O I think it's because of the way the background is blurred. The colours are okay, though I think the horse could use a few more blue-tones near the belly, because of the water there you know? (Great work on the reflection by the way!) Then I also feel there could be a few more splashes around the legs, as the current does look fairly strong :3 Some higher reaching splashes would be perfect Nice work on the mane and lighting is nice too, I think the tail could use a few more loose strands though. The marking on the neck looks a little flat, maybe try using dodge/burn or another technique to tone it up a little? Also cutting looks a little sharp around the chest and neck, maybe smooth that out a little?
Overall I think it's a nice job, but a few minor edits would make it look just that much more stunning
Tehheee she's a fuzzy booger right now though! But I'll be sure to tell the Queen how much she's loved Thank you, I'm blessed with having lots of horse friends that help satisfy my needs for photography! Plus I love to ask stallion owners if I can photograph their horses
