Running over the clouds, as fast as the wind, is the nightmare. The moon reflects on her black manes and fur. Her wings are torn and she looks around her angry and scared, giving people nightmares as she passes by. I don't know if the composition of the horse is right, cause I didn't have an example and I've never drawn a horse before. So I just imagened how a horse would run and what it exactly looked like...I hope it worked (I think it turned out rather good).

Wow! All those details add up together to make a beautiful drawing. I love the tail and the sort of broken like wings. Great work!

Hmmm... A pegasus with torn wings, a mean attitude, and it gives people nightmares as it passes by their houses. I like it, very nice.

Wowsers... One day, I'll make a NightMare tour through elfwood 2 I like this one. Her eyes are great, and the horses anatomy isn't right, but in this picture it doesn't matter 2 (I'm willing to give a few pointers If you like 2

i really like this. I first started drawing horses when I knew that would be a big hobby.. so they were my first models so to speak. And even tho you're horse isnt' exactly correct i love it cuz it looks dreamy. the eye, the wings the way its positioned and the coloring all help to give it that not real dream effect. very nice 2

ya, actually, the nightmare is supposed to be a dark horse with tail and mane of flame (oooo, look, that rimes !! 1) I think you should devellop the idea of those torn wigs, just add the fire, it really makes a style ^^

OMG this is great!!! I've tried for a long time to create a nightmare but every time I tried it turned out horrible or my scant drawing abilities suddenly left me...*sigh* But now I have inspiration! 2 But don't worry I'm not a copycat.

I loooooooooove the wings...and the moon shining...and everything! Its great! Keep it up!
