Description A character design commission of a naturally colored racing Thoroughbred for ~WolvenMoonMist . The character is hers to name and draw and basically do whatever she wants with.

She said he was gruff and ornery, so I tried to put a little of that in his face. He's a plain old bay with a star/snip and one sock on his left foreleg.

A lot of my commissions are horses, and a few of them are humans, so it's an even mixture.

You just gotta pay for yours and I'll get right on it! If you aren't comfortable paying it all up front, just pay part of it, but I formulate my "working-on" list by who has paid. Those who have paid get top priority!

If you don't have my paypal e-mail, note me!

Oh my gosh, words cannot describe how much I love this. The design looks awesome - I love the simplicity of it! Ha ha, you can tell by his expression that he is gruff and ornery. He looks perfect. Thank you very much! This definitely made my day.
