Description My Cavitto bid for cavitto.deviantart.com/art/Cav…



It was warm, with cool breeze wandering in trees, refreshing the air. It woke up the branches, forcing them to wave. The red-brown leaves must welcome it. Only red could be seen. The sky of crimson flames, the dried old grass. There were all shades of red. But they were so ruddy that it hurts one's eyes. Behind the thirsty grass stood a row of bushes. Light glimmer permeated through the thin gaps between the dense leaves. Then suddenly there were cracking sounds hustling in them. A magnificent stallion jumped out of the scrubs and walked slowly out of the shadow, towards me. The golden sun shone on his light, silky coat, as if he was the light source. By looking in his hypnotizing eyes, I understood his feelings, past and memories. His mane and tail drifted in the air, as leaves would in streams. His dissimilar bright colour stood out from this indistinguishable Autumn scenery.
... a crappy little story, that doesn't quite fit the picture as I wrote it after -.-



This is my first piece totally drawn in SAI!

Had a hard time: where's colour balance? Select multiple layers?...

I can't believe I drew something when I have tons of exams... I feel so guilty  NEVER EVER EVER gonna do that again

So what are those in the background? I have no idea, they were supposed to be clouds at first, but they turned out to be weird trees

Personally think the anatomy's improved in this piece


Spent around 6 hours back to revisions!

This is gorgeous! The whole image flows so well together, the background compliments the horse perfectly, and the stallion's anatomy and shading are amazing! Good luck on getting him!
Also, don't feel bad about drawing when you have exams! If you didn't take a break every now and again you will just go brain dead. The mind needs a break to be able to study better

This is beautiful! I love the orange tones and the way you've shaded the horse <3 I think the background looks like bushes on the thumbnail, personally, like he's just wandered out of a forest maybe

LOVE IT   

The first thing I noticed was the horse, but now that I´m looking closer to the background it looks perfect to me    like a orange sky with a camera effect <3 so awsome <3
