Um... I just do.
Seriously, I redesign the skull a bit; the horse neckbone has to come into the back of the head. Kinda sorta.
Unless it blows the composition, and then I stick it in any which way.
We are artists, we are GOD! (In our own minds).

The four in the background, laughing. Soldiers and horses are all Beasts of the Foot.

Hahahah the horse i used to ride didn't speak french i am sure he had a total southern drawl, and he never dumped me in the water but he would wade out in it so they wouldn't make me get off (i never kicked hard and I always had apples) I confess tho, seeing an officer of anything dumped ass-end over teakettle into the water is always gonna make you laugh! I am shocked his pointy pants can still point!

I love the style you use for your pen work. Just beautiful. The faces on the horses are a nice touch.

Face horses and all your deviations on the traditional animal, the in-betweens missed by even the best myth-makers have become deeply embedded into my imagination.

I'd love to see face-horses in your style....

I'm flattered and overwhelmed by that comment. I can't imagine doing a better job than you! You truly seem to feel the spirit of the horse. And yet you do wolves and men with equal grace. In fact, it is the reality that you put into your art that so marvelously brings out the mystical natures of your work. There is also the humorous, rather than over-indulgent way, that you explore gender that I enjoy.

Considering gender is so funny in the first place, how could I help it?

Heh. the moment you mentioned "hydro-attractive aim", I immediately thought of all those horse-jumping competition (don't know why, love to watch those), and there's almost always one rider that will end up in the water jump. At least one by competition.
Love everyone's expressions, soldiers and face-horse alike

That's why we're cartoonists -- for the expressions!

Hehe. *snicker*
There's nothing like a horse to make you feel like a complete fool - especially if you're a little too full of yourself. 
And why is it ALWAYS mud / puddles / water when a horse throws you? *ARGH*

And we say animals are stupid....
It's called hydro-attractive aim. All horses have it.
And all horses speak French.
"MOI???"

Hydro-attractive Aim. *LOL* That needs to be in the horse encyclopedia as an official term!
Well, at least water is "softer" than rocks....
