Description introducing, Yuki, the Ice Pony.

now you may be wondering why SpitFire sank and Yuki is clearly bigger than him.

because he's an Ice Pony he has splayed hooves that help distribute his weight over the top of the snow, which is why, in icier areas, these ponies are used as mounts or to pull sleds.

he's also reeeeaaaally fluffy.

they're usually grey, but they can also often be white.

they always have horns (the females are slightly smaller) and Yuki's was broken in a fight with another wild male.

Yuki himself is not a true wild Ice Pony. he is a feral, which means he was in captivity at one point in his life but he escaped. that's why he is wearing a small rope halter.

Yuki means "falling snow," i believe, in Japanese.

materials:
-Prismacolor pencils
-Prismacolor blender pencil
-ink of some sort

PLEASE DO NOT USE HIM WITHOUT MY PERMISSION, THANKS!

This is so pretty!
The fox looks resentful, and I like the horns and little breath puffs.

xD It made me laugh how Spitfire is sinking, but Yuki is adapted to such conditions. The sort of straining look on Spitfire's face brings out the effect and awkwardness of having to wade through the deep snow.
