    Horse Drawing C&C needed
    Well I am not exactly around horses so I would love some tough C&C. So feel free to attack.

    **He is a bit "bony" which when painted that wont show....He was going to be a Unicorn...so on his forehead there was the beginning of a horn, Please ignore that**

    Thank you guys so much for taking a look.

    actually you did a pretty good job.. I like the muscle structure you have on the forehead and nice deep jowls are nice too. the neck is a bit thick and your lacking forelock and mane but i assume you would add those when painting, the extra lines on the top of its cheek arent nessesary, on a real horse they really arent there.. also the nostrils are flared but thats alright if thats the look your going for, the bone on the bottom of its head (jaw) is very nicely done, looks realistic... well done! :gj: yes i agree it is a bit on the boney side

    Other than the eye looking like it's protruding a bit, it's lovely. I think it's the eyeridge making that effect.
    The rest is very nice, he's a bit roman nosed, but I really like roman nosed horses, so I LIKE that.
    Really nice sketch!

    Thank you both

    I am going to attack it and change it up a bit, along with that I will shade it out so he looks less boney.

    I will also sketch the outline of a main.

    Thank you again you two

    Where the cheek starts tapering toward the chin seems a bit too wide, it makes the nose seem to short. The neck is also a bit wide, and the ears are set a tad too far forward.

    I really like the style you are using.

    That looks pretty good :) The neck has to be one of the toughest things to draw when you're starting out. I hope that I can help; I paint horses, and literally spend my whole workday doodling them (boring computer desk-job..)
    I have found though, that with a horse head portrait, that moving one thing, often means that everything else has to be adjusted too. Alot of my horse paintings have a LOT of eraser marks underneath the paint!
    I would just move the bottom neck line up more, maybe even to the point where the lower jowl area meets the underside of the head. It'd look pretty if the mane were on the other side of the neck but still visible in wisps under the neck. With the forelock blowing off to the right..
