My chosen for this month in the EquineXchange.
<3 I was so tickled to get this character; from the moment I read the description post I knew I wanted to draw him. <3

I read through the information *meradragon had posted in her journals and such to try and get a better feel for this fearsome looking fellow.
I can only hope I captured him.

Artistic blurb
<3 I am happy with the way the back ground and sky came out; all moody without the use of dark storm clouds. As for the shading on the body I am just really happy it came out well.
Sometimes my shading with watercolor gets really nasty streaks into it due to drying and waiting to long between coats but this time it worked <3
The colored pencil was used primarily in his eye, nose and in the deeper shadows on his barrel and tail.

The paper warped, but that happens when the paper is thin and you apply water.
And please CRITIQUE MEH! <3
