[Keilin Alyr]

Heh, I don't know how I managed to miss the naming contest results. Thanks for the regular tag, Rav! =)

[Winged]

Thanks! It's a tricky descision between warmblood and draft, but i think i'll go for warmblood. Let me know if there are any problems.

Name: Lyra
Owner: Winged dreams
Breed: Warmblood
Gender: Female
Coat: Bay with black mane and tail. White star, snip and little white markings down the nose.
Refs: Click-Click-Click-Click-Click
The last three are the best for colour, the light is good in them. The first two are close up's of her head.
Also you can look at my post in my characters thread. Some of the adopties are better mimics than others, for example the PU one is probably the best. So they're probably not great to take reference from.

To lazily grin.

Glad you like her, Winged Doing RL horse mimics always makes me nervous; I don't want to mess somebody's horse up XD

The Art event...Can it be digital, or does it have to be done by hand?
Also, do we PM it to you or post it here?
(Sorry if I've missed that info)
*snugs thread*

[Ravvana]

Nope, digital and handdrawn are equally fine -- whichever you're more comfortable with

Post all entries here, please <3

[zarzamora]

Oooo lovely grown up WB's!! Thanks hun!

[Winged]

Hmm, i'll have to think about that art event And possibly make up a haiku just for the raffle, i expect it'll be rubbish. Poetry is not my strong point.
For the art contest, do we have permission to reference one of your photos? Not to trace, just to look at for the pose. I really suck at poses unless i can see one. I'm pretty sure it's not art theft if you give me permission, since the photo is yours?

[Ravvana]

Oh yes, you can reference any photo you like

Here are a bunch of photos for easy reference:

And as we currently have one entry for the haiku contest, your chances of winning something are really quite high XD

[Ravvana]

Hmm, would anybody be up for some $USD customs next week? It's my spring break, which means a) free time! and b) almost time to cough up a ridiculous amount of money for next quarter's textbooks x_X;;

[Garney]

c) garney almost has the next two breeds done? =D

[Ravvana]

Ooh, new breeds? I thiink I remember what they are, unless you changed your mind XD Exciting regardless

[Silvanon]

Man Rav, I know it can be hard to get him to jump without them, but should you really be encouraging his cookie habit that way?

[Garney]

*dies of giggles*

[springacres]

Hmm... USD customs you say?  I might be able to cough up something (big might about it, I should really be saving to get my computer battery replaced.  And a few other things - like flea and tick medication for my dog.)

[Ravvana]

HAHA, Silv, that is the best thing I've ever seen! XD Sean says that is a much better plan than the silly old crop I have been using as motivation

edit: Silv, is that the image's full size? If it was originally larger, would you be okay with PMing me the full copy? I definitely need to print a copy for the photo collage on Sean's tack trunk XD Otherwise I will print it tiny <3

[Silvanon]

XD  glad Sean approves.  And unfortunately that's the size I drew it at.  I can still send you the PSD, maybe it'll help somehow.

[Willow]

Shiny Sean with bad anatomy and poofy hair xD;



<33

[Ravvana]

Aww, Sean likes that one, too

Art Contest:



Ref lines: http://browse.deviantart.com/resources/?q=horse%20head#/d2bmk50
Ref for shading: None which is amazing for me because I cant shade!

100% Mouse drawn.

[Winged]

Hmm, well i'm not quite happy with this, i would have prefered to get more detail, especially with his markings since they don't really show. But the contest ends at 6am tomorrow morning for me. But i doupt i can spter this much more, i'd have to start again. I managed it in one go, didn't take loads of fresh starts, which is unusual for me!
Argh, when i look at it i really don't like that front leg, it's so wonky! But i don't really have time to alter it and then scan it in again.

It does look better in the original, scanning it lost quite a bit of detail. But hopefully Sean will like it anyway
I can give you the version without the text, if you like.


Picture links top the bigger version.

And the photo i used for reference -Click-

Awww! People need to get some adults and breed them pronto, so I can have fun coloring the new foal lines XDD

[Garney]

I have three sets of the same bone structure as that one, but I think this set is my favorite.

[Ravvana]
