Description who brings your nightmares to life?

ive been working on this thing for a while, but it just wasn't turning out how i wanted until i decided to experiment with the dodge and burn tools in my program

also i know that mares don't usually have canines(tho some do get them) i thought it was fitting that she have them anyways

.:update:. took the advice from the crits i got and added more glow to it

Its snout! lol I think you mean muzzle And yea the muzzle (length of head) is a little bit short but the way you have drawn the pic means you dont notice it. Other than that i find nothing else wrong with it, its stunning!!

Excellent use of colour and lighting.

The horse's snout is too short. At a stretch, this could pass for a panther in dire need of a haircut. Make it a little longer.

I'd say more, but I'm busy.

Ooo, creepy! Love the eye. ^^

Sorry it's not a really heavy crtique, but I don't really know how.

This picture is so nigthmarish! The horse looks like the keeper of all bad dreams.

Hmmm, you want heavy critique? I'm not very experienced w/ drawing horses... But a backlight on the entire body would make the entire scene more mid-night-like. That just means a few highlights around the contours of the horse would make it glow a lot more. Maybe the eye could use a little something to make it glow more too. I don't know. Ask someone who's deviation looks all bright and shiny. I'm still trying to find out how to make objects really glow.

Anyway, thanx for the tip in the forum!

Ooo, that's sweet. Critique-heavy, eh? ^^ I can't see anything that isn't right; I love the texture of the background; it looks all silky and flowy. Maybe you can add a bit of a glow around the eye since it looks really bright? Maybe some light reflecting off it's skin? And maybe add some highlight or something to the mane? But yeah, definite !
