Description

ZOMG I'm SUPER HAPPY WITH THIS ONE. :iconlawooplz:
It's completely outside my comfort zone. I'm AMAZED at the results. it's NOT me. period dot.

It started with simply looking through sky of silver's faves. I found the horse, and the field. The fire. Through her faves. THANK YOU SKY. As I manipulated, it just got more and more NOT ME. I had some trouble with the fire at first. And I FINALLY got why I was having trouble painting the tails - in this manip and the other one I'm currently working on. It's because I've never done a MOVING horse's tail. I've always done standing! 0_o

anywhos, after I finished the fire, I realized the sky (not the final sky) needed some darkening. So I found the awesome sky I have now. The quote - by MUAHHH. Just thought it up. probably isn't the best quote ever, but owell. :la:

ANYWHOS. The people that made this manipulation possible (stock and encouragers to be creative and look through other people's faves)!!!!!!!!

hey, here's a bit of critique for you on this one. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/>

first of all, i love the concept, and your cutting of the horse is brilliant. the quote suits the image perfectly, well done!

the mane and tail are excellent, although the tail seems a little too perfect for the situation. xD the highlights and lowlights are brilliant, well done with that! the mane shape is perfect, may i add.

one thing i think is missing overall from the image is lighting from the fire. the horse should have some very strong orange/yellow-ish lighting, especially on his face area. the ground should also have some extremely strong yelow-ish lighting on the ground directly around the fire area.

the fire itself looks pretty much perfect! although, it's very even at the top, and should have some longer flames at the top of the fire.

thats pretty much the only critique i have for you, and overall this is a lovely piece, i'd say it's your best yet. keep up the top work! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/l/l…" width="19" height="19" alt=":la:" title="La la la la"/>
