Agreed I'd stay in tier 3 for now

I'd charge like 20k for horse avatars

Your muscle definition / shadows / highlights are way to 'out there' try using soft light layers and blend then in more

On the art help. Section of the forums there are a ton isf tutorials listed in vellum forum that can help out with prep

Your hair is quite good so far, I'd worn on adding more flyaways and worn on shape more

And as a whole work on your lighting :)

Also try working on blurring the horizon a bit on your backgrounds to add more focus on the subject (eg the horse)

I really love how unique your style is! Since high muscle defenition is so defining to your pieces, I would suggest editing the backgrounds a bit to match! Meaning blur the background a bit, and some defenition to the darkest and lightest points of the background, and really make sure the horse and background are the same hue, making it all blend together to look like the two pieces are one :) I also agre with a lot of the others on here that you should be in the 30-50k range. Keep embracing your beautiful unique style and I really think your prices will be steadily increasing, most importantly make sure you are comfortable with your prices and charge what you think they are worth!

Your style is rather unique! Not my usual cup of tea, but quite pretty all the same.

A few tips:

1: Keep an eye on your hair flow. As the horse moves, so does the hair. When the horse is still, gravity takes over and it drapes. The motion tells how the horse is moving or interacting with their environment. If a horse is standing, looking back at the viewer, a hanging mane says the horse has been like that for a bit. A mane with a bit of 'bounce' to it says the horse just moved or there is wind.

However... when a horse is in motion/running, all of the hair will be moving in the same general direction. Keep an eye out to avoid sections moving in opposing ways.

2: Keep a skeletal/musculature chart handy. With such a bold style, you want to make sure that your shading/highlights are exact. Anytime I do heavy modifications or draw from scratch, I keep a chart in the corner of my screen.

And 3: I would definitely move up to Tier 2! Your art is absolutely worth 30-50k! :)
