Artist's Comments

This is, honeslty, as realistic as I can get. I started with small littlen strokes on the face, got annoyed with it, went to large blocking on the hindquarters. I only really smudged on the hooves, because I was being lazy.

I didn't roach his mane like in the last picture!

Name: Xanthus
Breed:Akhal-Teke
Height: 16.3 hh


I had to use multiple referances for this one, but mostly [link]

Very nice rose! I think the tail might need some work, even adding some finer strands would help I think... :)

Don't bother asking 'why'. A better question is, 'okay, so what do I do about it?'

Better a few spankings now than the letter of the law later.

Give Christ's love without asking for return. It's worth every tear you could ever put into it.

Thanks! I'm using "my" laptop now, you know, the one that David has had in his room for months, that is over sensitive, so typing this message =slow hand movements and yeah... bloody murder.

Don't take it out on the water just because you don't like the reflection.

Thanks! This one took ages, but now it's around christmas time, I'm going to attempt "reindeer" and maybe post something for it... like a card cover..

That's if I can get any time on the blasted laptop (since my mother's laptop "fried", though i think the "experts" were lying)
