Goodbye Artblock

#104680 Posted on 2017-05-13 18:07:31

This art piece was partially the result of having terrible art block for weeks, to the point of not being able to get anything done. So, today I finally felt inspired after purchasing several sketches from this lovely artist. I decided to make another late birthday gift for Wiki, using one of the sketches. The sketch was originally a couple sketch, but I removed the other horse. I'll use that for another time. I only felt like painting one horse this time around. 

This took 8 hours, with little to no breaks. I love how it turned out, even the background (it's not perfect but it turned out good). I don't usually enjoy doing large backgrounds due to having to do so much detail. But, I found a way around it, and this was the result. Oh, and I tried a new style for the hair/mane; which I think I'll be sticking to. 

I did this in GIMP 2.8 using a trackpad/mouse as usual. 

The horse is Wiki's character Regina, and I tried to make it as OUAT inspired as possible. 

I might upload a walk-through image to show the process of making this. 

Anyways, now that my art block is gone and inspiration is back; I'll finish tag orders, and get back to being active again. Tonight I have to finish a mother's day gift for my mom. I'll post that here as well when it's done. 

Link to the image, since it's huge

Not looking for critique since it's been several months since I last did this shading style, and even longer since I did a large BG. But, other comments are welcome! Oh, and suggestions on future large art pieces I should do? I plan on doing some YHHs on dA and here, but I need ideas. As well as pricing ideas, if I were to auction off some recolors in this style here.
