I did this from a photo, except for the horn, of course. It got kind of smeared in my sketch book.

Beautiful illustration!!! The shading is perfect.

I get the impression that he is almost translucent and is
floating through the foliage. Might not have been intentional on your part but I like the effect very much!
Obviously you really love horses and horse-esque creatures
and you draw them VERY well!

gragh, glass was a'possed to be "grass." Forgive me.

Gah! This picture's too pretty! I love it! What's really nifty about this picture is the motion in it- it's almost as if he's gliding through the glass, like the previous commentator said. And the horse-proportions are very accurate as far as I can tell.

This is fantastic artwork. The shading is incredible.

This sketch is beautiful! Did you get this idea from a Robert Vavra photo? If you did, I don't blame you AT ALL! Vavra takes the most gorgeous equine photos and I often use his pictures myself and add horns, wings, or something else. But great work! 2

WOW!!! Horses are really hard to draw, as I know because I try, but you do really well. You said you drew this one off a picture; I haven't seen your whole gallery but do you have some just out of your mind instead of rendered? If you do, congrats, because that's hard to get to look right. I can do heads. How did you practice drawing? Anyway, looks really good. Varva photo maybe? He has some really good ones.
Keep up your AMAZING work.
