Description
please download for full view...DA kills quality D:He's a black tobiano. he's almost built like a pony - shorter, rounder, but he's actually horse sized. His build is more of a "i'm not the prettiest pony, but everyone loves to be around me because i'm so much fun, so i still get the girls" type. he's basically a total class clown.
- Description of Europa by Firenze Design
Commission for: Firenze-Design of the character Europa
Wow. This is a landmark, my first commission ever. I love this piece, I love the calm moment it portrays, it gives off a fantasy feel but the horse is in no way, shape or form, as elegant as his surroundings. The horse is shorter, rounder even than most unicorns which is exactly what I wanted to portray. However, the setting still gives it that soft and ethereal feel which is exactly what I was hoping for ^^
The character is written amazingly well. I thoroughly enjoyed the post I read of his, to 'get his character' and I hope this picture does him justice. This is basically the first manipulation I've done that had a character as inspiration instead of a song base, I know it doesn't sound like a big deal...but it is to me. I hope the clients like it xD

Awww thanks <3 I might do a tutorial/walkthrough of a piece if I get enough interest. I didn't think my painting skills were that great but if a few people are interested, I'd be more than happy to throw something up for you all
