Fullview please

Winter is coming. Days become shorter and nights longer. The birds fly to the south. A melancholc time especially for me now. I´m still sick and worried about my future. Couldn´t sleep last night. I wanted to draw something but I still cannot finish commissions, I´m just so tired. I found some great pics at the gallery. I thought I should try give it a try. Scribbled the sketch and took the photo as reference for light and shadow. I worked in grayscale in Photoshop 7 with my cheap tablet. My last try to draw a horse was a disaster. But this time it came out really great. Took me only 3 hours. Here´s the link to the original grayscale pic: [link]

I´ve colored the horse with a tutorial Losmios sent me. The first time I drew Nwalme en lor in fullbody. I tried about 5 hours to find a good background. This was the last I came up with. I made it in PS and OC 4. There is a little story about the sparkles.
As I was 6 or 7 years old I loved (and still love) it to walk down snowy pathes in winter. Fresh snow sparkels in the sun, like thousands of diamonds. I always wonderd why. Maybe someone walks at night trhough the snow and spreads diamonds or sparkels all over the snow. And in the morning when all people walk through the first snow they see all these little twinkling diamonds.

I cannot find words to convey how much I adore this piece of art... :faint: It's... awe-inspiring.

So wrap up care in a cobweb
and drop it down the well

into that world inverted....
where we stay awake all night,
where the heavens are shallow as the sea
is now deep, and you love me.

^^ thanks muchly for the comment and the fav. I´m really proud on this one (although I really screwed up the background, it just doesn´t fit to the horse). I´m really bad at backgrounds, especially clouds (rainclouds, or those clouds in winter). And thanks for the "addin color to a grayscale image" tutorial.
