firstly, I am annoyed because I just wasted 10 minutes thinking of a title for this (I already used 'Gypsy Gold' )

secondly, I am annoyed because this looks very different to what I drew on my home computer. I bring my files here to load on the internet and they look bloody awful on this screen. The original is MUCH smoother and had better colours, I just couldn't match it in PS no matter what I did.

thirdly, I am annoyed because... well I just am. grah!

I was looking at pics of Gypsy Vanners last week and was just drooling over them for ages lol. I went home and did this after seeing some photos of a stallion called Clononeen Mull of Kintyre. I didn't actually use his photos for this though - I worked without reference - so I can't call this a portrait of him, just 'inspired by'.

It snowballed into a fairly detailed thing (though a little quick in places) and I quite liked it, so here it is. Of course I should have been doing other things but... These things happen.

but looking at it now makes my blood boil. It's much richer and browner originally. I might toy with it a bit more and update the image.
