The wings are a mess, but besides that how is it? Any critiques and suggestions would be very appreciated!

1.) Do a color balance and try and make the wings better match the horse and backround better (a more pink/orange color) - 2.) The Horse has feet "in" the water. Therefore water should be covering the hooves in the water. - 3.) Where is the tail? - 4.) Lighting. The "lighting" in this picture is coming from behind the horse. So the front should be darker than the behind. - 5.) reflection. The water looks very rough in the picture, so just a shadow should work. - 6.) Blur the background slightly. The focus should be on the horse, not the pretty sunset in the backround and the birds flying and all that. - 7.). Eyes. Make the eye a color. Yellow. Blue. Violet for all I care. It needs to stand out a little. - 8.) Lining. Trace a small white/light color of the backround around the horse and the creases to make them stand out.
hope this helps! Edited at May 16, 2020 10:48 PM by Freedom Elites

Thank you! The horse is floating like it's coming into to the ground, but I will find a way to make the hooves blend somehow lol. This is a rough draft so I will add the eyes and tail!

Can someone explain why people "line" the horse now? I don't understand why that is the norm now. I always remembered the point of manips to look natural/real, and I don't see how outlining the horse accomplishes that. I sold a lot of art here in the past but I've just started playing again and it seems to be a theme for this game specifically. Not trying to be rude at all, just confused lol

Yeah, I'm also not a big fan of it though sometimes I feel like making a little bit of a line to show where the light his the horse can make it nice looking.

People line the horses as their style. A few tier 1s started doing it then it spread. If you don't like it there are plenty of artist who don't use it. I don't like it so I don't put it on my pieces...really it's all down to style and personal preference
