Personality & History: Chase is a highly strung and sensitive stallion because he was mildly abused as a foal. We rescued him at three years of age and he is now regaining his confidence and learning to show jump at Climax Stables. He is very loving once he gets to know someone, but it is difficult to earn his trust.
Breeding Status: Closed. Realistic warmbloods preferred. No Frame Pintos.

This has a been a WIP since June, but I finally finished it! :dance:
Chase really needed a new conformation picture. I tried a completely new colour technique for this. Normally I shade sketchily in greyscale and smudge it, but this time I did a more traditional technique and had all the colours pure right off, laying them down at a low opacity until I built them up the way I wanted. I never used the smudge tool once on this image! :faint: Zoomed in you can see all the brush strokes. It was actually really fun, but it took me a long time...so don't expect me to do this much detail on every picture. :XD: I'm also pleased with the background for a change, I made myself put extra effort into it in the hope it would match Chase somewhat...normally I hate my backgrounds, and maybe I won't like this in a few days, but right now I do. :lol: I know Chase has some anatomy errors, but I've done my best.

Chase was referenced from a book, the background from my own photographs.

Your such a great artist- it's so hard to tell that they are paintings, not pictures! =P I cannot draw a realistic horse for the life of me!
