Description
Inspired by a rather corny Aussie horse movie I saw a little while back; there was one scene however that I really liked, of the focus of the movie, a silver stallion, that used minimal lighting in a dark stormy night. I thought I would try out some experimental painting techniques/use the Painter I won last year here some more. I did do a base render for setting up the lighting and for reference using the Mil Horse in Bryce 5, but all of the image has been totally overpainted in Painter. I also wanted to try doing more complicated hair for the mane etc. A definite challenge for me! Worth a look at the larger image to see the detail. The original is 16" x 20"
Hope you enjoy!

Excellent Image...Love it
Actually, I'm more amazed by your icon picture. It appears to be a picture of you with that lion cub! Yet your homepage mentions horses, not lions. Real or Photoshopped?
Yep that really is me and that really is a real lion cub in my lap:) No Photoshop:) My husband took that picture of us at a Renaissance festival in Larkspur, Colorado where a fellow had a big male lion and this adorable cub there. Being a lion nut I just had to have my picture taken with him:)
Truly superb painting! I love it & thank you for sharing it with us. It was truly worth all that hard work I'm sure you did. The mane is flabbergasting! :)
This is an amazing and truly gorgeous image - your horse is wonderful and very beautiful - especially like the mane!! A most definite instant fav!! ^o^
Stunning!
Just besautiful! Fantastic style, love the light and glow to it all!
The detailing is amazing even in the smaller view. It has an almost translucent quality that gives him an etherial look.
OMG!!! Am I ever IMPRESSED!!!
This is most impressive - very dramatic and dynamic composition, and the artwork is sublime.
Once again you have shown your abilities,in what you can do with these Cg programs.You inspire me. A job well done. Is there a chance that you will ever do a actual horse painting using your Cg programs,without using a model horse from poser? I'm sure not only I would love to see one done,but others would enjoy it to. HUGS
