This drawing has been a long time in the making. I started it almost four months ago. The wings took me forever. I got bored of it a couple times and had to hide it cuz I felt looking at in one more time might push me over the edge and I would go insane. So that was a bit of a setback. That and I took my sketch book to a family dinner to work on some drawings and my baby cousin got a hold of it while my back was turned. This drawing sustained minimal crayola damage. I was livid. that'll teach me to leave my skech book out. Thank God I was able to fix it in photo shop.

Excellent. How long have you been drawing horses? I've been at it for about 7 years. . .so I am familiar with proportions, and even though your horse's proportions seem a bit off, you make up for it in the gorgeous detail in the wings and face. Wonderful, please keep drawing.

Wish I had patience enough to add this kind of detail to my work!!

I don't know how you freakin' do it. Everything you draw is so smooth and fluid. The muscle definition is profound but not protruding and the shading has the perfect fine line between it and the flesh. Awesome pic.

Well...you might not like me for this but I feel it needs to be said. The wings are georgous but they are way to flat. I find it pretty useful to forget the detail when drawing wings, especially for pegasi because it makes them look odd. No offense ment by it, and im trying to be constructive in my comment so is it working?

Its beautifull, but as a fellow horse drawer the head needs to be slightly bigger it looks a bit funny with a big boddy and a small head , but yes i know how hard it is to get everything the right size.

the head looks very nice, nice chest also but i do believe the hind legs are a bit off. but over all it looks very nice. lol wings must have taken some time. Nice Job!, very well done =D
