Description EDIT:
So, my entry didnt win, i was up against some very hard competition though so i cant say i didn't expect it. I would be lieing if i said i wasn't disappointed, but i tried my best and thats all i can do If you would like a commission from me heres the information [link]



This is finally complete! You guys have no idea how happy i am to finish this, My computer have been the biggest pain in the ass the whole time i've been doing this and i really thought i wouldnt finish. A large percentage of this i have had to redo at least once because of my pc, but hey, we got there in the end! ^^

So, The mare featured here is Moulin rouge, I designed her tack with that in mind, As well as attempting to make her a little bad ass xD The idea of the background is a little odd, Although the scene would be normal for a nordanner featuring the ocean pearl ( if that is what it is called, i forget...) i dont recall seeing anything like it as if the potion hadn't taken effect yet. Since there is no information about how long potions take to come into effect, i thought it was reasonable to assume she had been given the potion before being deployed and it hadn't changed her appearance yet, this is why she has the strange harness looking thing since I assume a saddle would just slide off a nordanner featuring that potion.

I started this piece literally five minutes after i learnt of the auction, Moulins are one of my favorite muations and as i am saving up for a new computer, aquiring one through points would be impossible, i just hope i have done enough to win! i know a lot of awesome people have entered, So im keeping my fingers crossed!

And id like to say thank you to everyone that stopped by one of the many join.me's i have hosted while doing this, I think i would have given up without your constant flow of encouragement since my computer was fighting against me the whole time xD


And with that, i'm going to take a nap!
