Day 8: Joy

I was struggling a bit with just WHICH idea I wanted to go with, then I was prowling through my refs folder, and found a pic of a friend's gelding, Hanzo, being a noodle. And one of her bunch was on my list to do at some point anyway, and I'd already doodled a horn on his sire so... I sent her a message and asked if I could use the pic for today's Junicorn. She agreed, and here we are!

Originally, I wasn't intending on it being so heavily referenced/a paint over, but it landed that way after I was done with all my gestures, trying to get a feel for the lines. lol
