I think I might know what it is about the horse that bothered that other person, having raised horses, I notice that the legs are in the wrong position. Typically, when a horse is walking, running etc. the legs are at oppsites. As example, if the left fron hoof is angled toward the rear of the horses body, then the left rear hoof will be angled towards the front. With the left legs in that position, the right fore hoof will be stretched out to the front and the right rear hoof will be stretched out towards the rear. As always, there are exceptions to the rule, but that's typically how a horse will move. It's for balance, kind of like the way when you step forward with your right foot, your right arm swings back. Anyway, I like the composition.
I'll shutup now.

Nice coloring and "sketch". I like the swirly ground and how you made the horse look demonic as well (I noticed it had little fangs, or is it just me?) Wonderful detail in the hair of the tail and mane, I enjoy looking at your art! Keep it up!

Ahhhh excellent, I was trying to do some Warcraft drawings today, but I wasn't inspired enough. My brother has brought some of the figures and is painting them. Fun times. Lovely colours! And posing is perfect. Great work.

I respect your opinion so I have to ask, what about the horse bothers you? Any suggestions would be appreciated... Any other good art books I should know about? Have you seen the Art of Capcom book? A Must Own.

Like i said before, I dont realy know whats wrong with the horse so dont let it bother you Maby its that thing the guy below explained to you, because the horse looks nice, but positionig and proportions need some fixing.
I'll probably borrow a book from my coworker about diferent creatures and their particularitys (ill tell you what its called when i get it)
I havent seen that book, but if its a must, than ill look it up
