These are two of my characters, Maia (the dragon) and Aeventhrai (the tricorn). Maia is a human with the ability to transform into a dragon about the size of a house, although she can make herself smaller if she wishes. Her mother is silver and her father is black, but due to some abuse she received as a child, her black side completely overcame the silver. She murdered her own adopted family, and faked her own death, and then plotted against her queen with her allies of werewolves and vampires, to overthrow that kingdom and rule with an iron claw.

Aeventhrai used to be a unicorn, but Maia, whilst out hunting, came across him. She cut his neck (you might be able to see the scar) and willingly forced her own dragon's blood into the wound. The white unicorn, a purity that Maia hated, was transformed into a massive red and black stallion that gave her his utmost loyalty. He gained some draconic traits, such as spines on his back, the horns on his face and legs, and the wings, which are too small for him to fly with. He is also able to cast a Disguise, and appears as a large dark strawberry roan war-horse. The scars on his hindquarters are a result of a smaller, but furious Maia going into a fit of absolutely destructive rage, and he happened to be too close.

Many are terrified when they see a young human girl walking with a giant of a horse following close behind, as Aeventhrai is never able to hide his vicious nature, and will attack any enemy unless Maia instructs him not to. And they are exactly as the title says.

OH WOW! no one commented on this one either! OH GOD I AM FALLING IN LOVE WITHYOU! your art is breath takeing! I LOVE Aeventhrai! the eyes are amazing, his body looks almost kelpieish (if thats a word) i love the detail! i wish i was that good! LOVE IT! the dragons pretty too. but i am really in love with the way you draw your horses! the scars look life like!

:-) Kerri Jurgens replies: "Yeah, Aeventhrai is my fave too. He’s supposed to be more draconic than kelpieish(?), but if that’s your opinion, fine by me. I felt like doing something completely away from my normal subjects, and this was the result!"

there are a few points where this could be improved, but...
compared to the averge horse drawings you find on here, this is actually pretty good. did you use a reference photo? the neck/head are too long/big for the horse, but the muscling is pretty good and so are the mane and tail.

:-) Kerri Jurgens replies: "I used reference for muscling. The neck was deliberate, but the head was a mistake. I only realised after I did a proper study. But thanks for swinging by, and for the tips!"

Hehe 1 I was going to say that it’s pure evil, and then I’ve seen your title!
The horse came out bloody amazing, I really loved it. And the scene itself is very original and well done! You are very skilled with Graphite 12
