This was a fun painting to do. I was given a very cool character sketch by Jose Saenz, as well as a rough idea of the layout the client wanted, and told to render it as a theatrical poster.

~4000 pixels wide. Several nights of work in Photo-Paint 10.

Thanks for lookin'

Very well done.

I agree with Suma, though. I too couldn't make out the head of the horse for quite some time.

wow, this is really cool.

the only problem I have is the horse's muzzle. I'm not really fond of the big round lip and teeth area and the skinny portion conecting it to the head... I know it fits with the style, but I still cant get over the overly silly feeling it gives me... makes it super "slapstick" to me.

but whatever, take it for what its worth, its still a fookin' awesome picture. the colors are wonderful and the composition is pleasant.

great job.

that is nice. I like how you did two light sources. The fire and the sparks are the best. =]
