Urgh! What a horrible title, but you can guess this is a scene from OotP. I never thought I'd be doing this - creating Harry Potter fanart. Oh well... A pic done by special request and it took me quite a bit of time to color it. The colors still look like they're clashing to me, but I'm nitpicky... Anyhoo, this was really good Photoshop practice, which I'd been neglecting for awhile. Special note: I already know the thestral isn't bony enough, so it won't do any good to rant about it. :)

First, I must say, the threstral is magnificent! It is so awesome! And now, it is time to say what I meant to. I love the details, the expressions, the clouds and everything about this picture! It's amazing and fantastic!!!

The Thestral's face is really bony and creepy. Good effect!

The thestrals are completley skeletal. At least I think so.

*squee!* @.@ i want to take it home and feed it fried chicken and hug it forever... *scrapes Harry off the thestral's back and sneaks it away in her pocket*
gah. so in love now. oh, and the actual skill in this picture is amazing, too - sorry, would have so much more to compliment you on if i wasn't distracted and mesmerised by your thestral... it's your own fault, though, you know. reducing me to "gah"s and "squee"s with your cool skinny critter. *shakes head*
