My very first commissioned piece! It was supposed to be drawn in a sort of anime-ish (is that a word?) sort of way. Don't know if it came out that way though. Anyway, this is the first version I made. I reworked this into a black and white, more 'wild' looking final version, and since this one got no real use anymore I decided to upload it here. Added a real simple background. Done in Photoshop 7 with a mouse (I want a tablet!!) It was a lot of fun to do though, even if it took forever :)

Forgot to add; idea: Sean Coady, art: me, myself and I ;P

Lovely! I just love chess related pictures (don't know why, I can't even play the game well..)
The colours are really interesting, not the first one's that I would have chosen but that doesn't mean anything because I can't either draw horses or colour.. 1
Eh anyways I like this pic a lot and I'd like to add this to my-soon-to-be tour, hope it's OK?

I would love to see the black and white wild one, if you could up load it, because this one is very cool and i think it'd be even cooler if it was "wild".

nice! the expression and flared nostrils reminds me of my horse when he's freaked out about something. I also applaud you on not doing a full row of teeth like some people do. they don't realize there's a gap between the molars and incisors.. very nice, I like the mane and the checkered pattern and how the pattern flows with the horse's shape.
