Surul

Surul= the grey (horse)

I think my best digital painting I ever did so far And my first detailed dappled horse made.
I used Photoshop CS5, and an improvised graphic tablet (my touchscreen laptop and a new-bought stylus)
I didn't use a properly reference, just some dappled horses pics for the textures.
I think about 8h or more.

I was so happy after I bought my stylus, because I have finally felt like a digital artist (somehow), drawing more naturally and expressive. So first I started with a quick sketch in paint, then I liked the outline and I decided to make a complet painting of it. And this is the final result

I am satisfied with it, excepting the tail (and the mane maybe)

Maybe I'll submit it as a howrse coat but I don't know as they always reject my favorite coats.(actually most of them)


So please tell me your opinion about this!
