Description Snow blew and gathered around his legs, as though caressing his coat. He was not, as most assumed, a huge white stallion…No; Kyan’s coat was so dark it was almost black. His horn was really the only thing that reflected his season. Snow coated everything around him as he slowly advanced, bringing winter to the world in beautiful, glittering splendor.

I confess. It was Arrsistable’s “The Fire Lord” that inspired me to do this. And I’ve been looking for an excuse to use this background. Therefore, this is dedicated to ^^ Shush. I sort of like him. He’s the winter deity…I may enter him in Silver’s contest. What do you think? I like him. ^^ I painted his forelock. Yay!

Mutt-250 [2008-04-29 01:48:14 +0000 UTC]

I really do like him. And the fact that he is NOT a white unicorn. The only problem is the snow between his legs...it looks kind of blue compared to th e rest of it.

Thank you, dearest. Hmm...shadow? I can't tell which part you're talking about. His front legs or back legs?

Mutt-250 In reply to Cloudrunner64 [2008-04-30 02:49:55 +0000 UTC]

Well...I thought the snow between both his front and back legs looks more blue than the rest of the snow in the picture...

Hmm...it might be; I could have taken the shadow a little too far.

So perfect... I love the horn. I was thinking of doing something almost exactly like this! Weird....

Thank you!! Those horns are awesome ^^ I was worried the angle wouldn't work out right, but I suppose it did.
Were you? Do eeeet! I want to see xD

*maybe* if I do a horse sketch I like I might do one!
Whenever I think of snow I always remember dark trees covered in it. Always loved the contrast. My winter unicorn would be that really dark chocolate brown with a white/silver mane and tail.

Kay!
Oh, I like that idea, too. Especially if you use dark trees, so the silver won't blend. It'd be so preeeetty.

Very nice, especially the horse, its droopy head makes it looks lonely.... and the mist around its feet, kind of has an empty feel to the scene. I likes it ^ ^
