Description
This is my entry for silverglass19 's contest. Here is Adelais as a carousel horse. I think her color is too yellow, but I used the only pencils I had. (I drew this during vacation.)The ribbon in her mouth turns into an equine rainbow, and the ribbons on her decorations under the mice also symbolize equine colors. The mice are the cubby family.
Her carousel pole has famous horses and horse stories on it. Starting at the bottom, the wings and snakes symbolize pegasus being born from Medusa's blood. Above that, the swirls represent Allah creating the arabian from desert wind. The sea-biscuit stands for Seabiscuit, and the crown above represents Epona, goddess of horses. The butterfly symbolizes boribaby 's Aerynne, and above that is Luna Lovegood's wand, since she has a horse patronus. Lastly, the sword represents Aragorn's Brego. I referenced this pose from Puk3y101 's Come Back Here. [link] This is my first ever deviation on DA, so I hope I did everything properly.

Wow, that's amazing! I love all the detail you put in, especially the pole and tassels. I can really see that you put a lot of thought into this, and it turned out so beautifully! The shading is lovely too, and I think the color is perfectly fine.
Thank you so much for making this!

Thank you, but no. I'd like to keep it just in my gallery. I'm probably going to use that wonderful picture again to draw in my own style, its such a wonderful picture.
