I like my two favorite horsemen are war and conquest but hey this is coming from the person who picks fights with her best friends and dares them to touch a porcupine and is currently getting spiles pulled outbof my hand

It reminds me of Darksides, he should be part of the 3rd video game as Pestilence. I would so play it. Then again I thought Darksides was a great story to ever be played.

Amazing! I love the horsemen of the apocalypse, but i find this one not superior to the other three while in meanwhile it should be at least quite the same. I could never do what you have done.. but I really miss some extra magic and chaos in this picture. Much of love (XD plz dont hate)

Much respect for using the actual Horsemen of the Apocalypse. So tired of people thinking Pestilence is a thing.

I saw you're stuff a while back and loved it, I'm obsessed with the four horsemen and I love it when people use the actual ones and not stuff like 'Pestilence' or 'Fury'. This is the best depiction of Conquest I've ever seen, and I love that horse.

Well, just add a ridiculously well imagined hellish landscape in behind the character, and you will certainly be nipping at his heels!! Again, awesome!

This is when we realize animals are just as badass as their masters when they're set on doing something. I don't have much to say here: this picture just sweats courageous journey across battlefields! I can't wait to see how the other 3 will turn out!

UndeadBananaz [2014-10-26 11:16:27 +0000 UTC]

Great artwork, very atmospheric. Just one thing that's bothering me - his pose is too stiff. Because of how the horse is angled, it looks like the horseman is falling off his horse. I know you painted it this way to fully capture the horseman's torso, but I think his body needs to be a little more curved, with his butt properly seated on the mount as well. I think that way the picture would look more natural and have that "flow".Β Looking forward to the next ones in the set.

As both an artist and a veteran horserider (6+ years and counting), I can see what you mean but I think I should point out that when you're riding like that - ie, dangerously - you have to move in time with the horse, yes, but that often having your butt planted firmly on the saddle is a bad idea. Particularly one-handed, it's a better idea to trust your instincts, which should be razor-sharp at that skill level.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8M00P… <-- that is a dude who does modern horseback archery in Hungary. Skip to about 2:40 to see what I mean.

As for my critique of this art? (Yeah, you knew it was coming ) The warrior seems too heavy to properly ride and shoot - with heavy-looking armour like that, he should be wielding a mace or a morning star or something.
