Uhh, *mumbles incoherently* I'm sick today, so I busied myself with this. I'm learning about WW1 at the mo' in History, in particular Gallipoli. That, as well as the song "And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda", was my inspiration. I haven't manipped horses in a while, let alone this many in one piece. So, I'm rusty. And worried about exams that are on right now.

I know this is graphic, but I tried to be tactful. There is no blood anywhere, and those horsies laying down? Yeah, well they just got tired while watching the fireworks and went to sleep, okay? But seriously, this is a dedication piece to the battle at Gallipoli, not a hate piece, racist piece, or anything. It's not meant to be historically correct, (no really, I thought all the troops were horses), so please don't flame me. I'm contemplating whether or not to put a mature content filter on, on account of the 'graphic'ness.

Working on the image: First attempt with flames! Yay! Making the flame reflect on the horses is much harder than it looks, I'll give you that much. Oh, and I cheated. Reusing horses, cutting out the horses orig. shadow, shyah.

10 hidden credits, not including the main two. Can YOU find them all? Take that, you image stealers! POW!
