Very nice!

The bring it on headline drawing is really good, I love the one in the top left hand corner. The stallion and his ad are really pretty, the racer drawing is simply amazing. I really wish I could draw horses that good, the first one is way better than any horse I can draw now. How did you start learning to draw them?? I would try to draw some, but I guess you got to be naturally a good drawer Which i'm not, I'm making a horse figure out of newspaper and paper machie type stuff in art thought. Its coming out really nice so far, I'm still putting on the paper machie stuff. I'll post pictures once i'm done

Actually, you've already got the thread started. Great!!! Good luck.

Where are our horse people out there?

You are improving, though as you noted, Barbaro's legs are far too long for his body, but you are getting better. To get even better, try working on one "part" at a time - do several sketches, including shading, based on one front leg and hoof, for example, make that the size of your page each time. Pay attention to how the muscles form shadows and highlights, and how the horse holds and bends that leg. Then do a hind leg for as many times, it's called doing "studies." You'll get to know the horse anatomy better, and you'll be surprised how much that will help when you then do a "whole horse" from scratch!

Hay, compared to what I could draw, you do darn good!! I like the one with the jockey.

Thanks guys! I'm going to search for 'how to draw' various horse parts. I like to look at pictures, too. The Barbaro running is from a video I found on youtube :]

Karen - I'll definitely try that. Maybe some today...make myself not think about riding today...

I_Luv_Rusty - I can't wait to see it! Sound cool! My figures/sculptures always looked like...well...a pile of clay. :]
