Description
Here I'm starting to work with references ! I won't tell you which picture I used though, because it's just your average show arabian that you can find on any breeding websites like Midwest Arabians or Arabhorse. I think I made it look a lot better than on the picture though, cuz the head is better proportionned (less long with bigger eyes) and the neck is as thick as it should be - though there definitely is a problem with the eye. Don't you get tired to see all these "false" arabians with weak legs and backs and giraffe necks, that were bred just for their attributes and who look distorted when you're used to seeing normal arabians - strong horses with a small head and long thin legs ? I do ! Poor breed, the blow of Allah ended up in a showcase arenaEDIT : added the background (it suuuuucks) ! told you it was a WIP

I know, I should never have followed my reference on that ear, I knew it would look odd from the beginning

I didn't think it would come out that good either, especially since the colouring started out in a really bad way ^^ I ride too
