Description
A thousand horse and none to ride! -
With flowing tail, and flying mane,
Wide nostrils never stretched by pain,
Mouths bloodless to the bit or rein,
And feet that iron never shod,
And flanks unscarred by spur or rod,
A thousand horse, the wild, the free,
Like waves that follow o'er the sea,
Came thickly thundering on,...
~Lord Byron, XVII, Mazeppa, 1818
I thought this quote said it better than I could...:) Inspired by the gorgeous Friesian stallion, Willem.
Production notes: Mil Horse posed and morphed in Poser 7. Exported to Bryce 6.1 and rendered there using a new tax map from a new set I am working on. Someday I will learn how to manipulate the lights in Poser the way I can in Bryce (I hope:) Bryce really leant itself to lighting this image the way I wanted... Postworked in Photoshop using my Mane N Tail Pack 2 and some little touches using Ravnheart's Heavenly Hair 4, and patlash's Fairy Dust as well as some additional drawing using my Wacom Intuos 3 tablet.
And now the legal blah, blah, blah...

Fantastic and gorgeous work!
He really looks to be running free. Beautiful work for this wonderful result.
Wow! This is incredible, so realistic.
Beautiful as always :)
Gorgeous!
Wow, he is a force of nature that is undeniable. Power emanates from him and I love his mystical eye and wild mane. The detail in your texture is so awesome, I want to reach out and touch his lustrous thick coat. I can imagine this beauty running across the skies in a thunderous gallop. I love the stars flowing into the mat. Magnificent artwork, Laurie, in your inimitable style. CC
