EWS Spring Mini Halter Event- Armani

Our first event, I'm so exited

I'm really pleased with this picture, first time drawing a moving horse and I didn't use a real reference beside me all the time, but only studied pictures of moving horses .But I had to reference the halter, becaus I didn't knew where the different parts connect ^^'
Oh, and I love his tail
Also, I drew his mane a bit different
I really gave my best, and I hope we'll win something

This is Armani's entry for the Mini Halter event of *Eclipsedwolf-Stables
Here's the link to the show: [link]

I had the horse, the halter and the sand already finished at saturday, but I'm sick again and had lots of things to do yesterday. I really tried to do a proper background, but I think you can see that I'm not feeling to well ^^'
That's also the reason I didn't shade it yet, I need to be in "shading mood" to do it properly, but I'll add it as soon as I feel better
Oh, and that stuff around him is sand, he's not posessed by an evil spirit or something like that xD
