Artist's Comments

A sort of cover image for the story I've started posting on my web site. This underwent numerous re-designs which I discarded at intervals over the past year or so until finally settling. It was a particularly frustrating effort -- I'm glad to have finally finished it. It was drawn first on bristol board, scanned, then painted in Photoshop.

This is too gorgeous. I love all the detailing you put into the banner. And I really like the white horse. Also the guy on the black horse reminds me of Sean Connery for some reason.

A wonderful work you've done here ^^ Lots of detail and lots of nice shading... ^^
There something with the girl that bothers me, but I don't know what... so it's probably nothing ^^
Anyway, nice job!

Truth is in what you believe. Do not believe what you have not seen. Do not have faith in what you cannot believe.

Super. Also- she's a fittie.

Oh my. The horses! The horses!!

And I love the way you make the skin look extremely realistic, one of the best "skins" I've ever seen a digital artist do. Digital skin often looks too shiny, like plastic, or too blotchy; this is just wonderful. I'll have to fav this! ;)
