SciFi and Fantasy Art Shadowfax ´Sketch´ by Rhiannon C. Piper ´Daggermaiden´

Gandalf- ‘That is Shadowfax. He is the chief of the Mearas, lord of horses, and not even Théoden, King of Rohan, has ever looked on a better. Does he not shine like silver, and run as smoothly as a swift stream? He has come for me: the horse of the White Rider. We are going to battle together.’ book 3 of LOTR TTT. i used a photograph my mum took of my fav horse for reference (thanks mum!!) and it is done in pencil and darkend/cleaned up in psp
