Description
A gift for the amazingly talented BlueHorseStudios of her stunning character Isonoe! This was totally unplanned, but I read the character description and he just gave me the muse I had been craving
This was super fun to make! Everything seemed to click and I hope that I have taken some steps in the right direction with this image. I tried to make the whole image a bit more special and 'wow' and I also tried to give the hair more depth. I tried repainting on this one for one of the first times and I love the result! Especially the face detailing 
Download for details and better quality!
I would really love some critique

alright so, first off, thank you so, so much for creating this! The hair is probably by far your best, and i'm not being biased! You have made the strands stunning and visually, you can tell that they are strands and not just /there/. Great work! The coloring is amazing as well! The horse color and the hair color, you did so great, i'm so proud you!
I'm going to give you a little bit of advice on lighting though! See if i can't help you out <3 In fact, what I'm about to tell you will later be done in a tutorial so you can look back on it!
Take a look at your sky and your background. Down in the left hand corner you see how bright the mountains/hills are against the sky? select that with your lasso, feathering at 30-40% depending on image size(that size usually for 4000x3000px) Select all across the page. Now, go to your curves, or brightness/contrast, or something, and play with it until you think, Hm, that looks like it matches! If you aren't comfy with this, create a new layer (while still selected) and grab colors frm the sky and go down the selected strip, painting over it. Blur and set to softlight! You might hve to do this a few times, repeat it over the background until you feel like it looks good!(all of that will be UNDER your horse layers!)
That would definitely help you with molding this picture!
