not quite a redline but just touchups I guess? I'll delete it later but yeah none of the uploading sites are working for me cause my comp is a bitch
I found a really good ref for this so I put it on the side
but
Yeah I'll do that little list thing like Jazzy.
-It does look really stiff, I think alot of it is because the mane. Maybe if it's walking or trotting but it wouldn't hang straight down like that at a canter.
-same as the others for the tail
-The wrong hind leg is forward.
-Watch out for color bleeds, it's not a major thing but it definitely takes away from the picture when you see a square of pink that would be easily noticed if you checked over the pick

and yeah the rubbery effect Jazz was saying is probably cause you're relying too much on the bezier tool, I mean, using it is all fine and dandy, it makes for quick and clean lines, but try and make it look more natural after the fact if you're doing like, the whole side of the leg with it. Then yeah trying to blend the shading a little more never hurt anyone.

And since apparently we're voting on the 1st tryouts now I vote in

Thanks for all the crits! I really appreciate it, and will keep them in mind next time I draw.
I think (at least part of) my downfall was not referring to a reference.

Mara @ Saturday, August 28th 2010, 10:28 PM

I'm glad I could help c:
and yeah refs are amazing, and are the things you really learn the most from
especially with stuff like this cause from memory I probably would've drawn the canter wrong cause it's pretty hard to pay attention to leg positions while there's so much motion going on, and you don't have to blame yourself at all

You did a really great job

Rye @ Saturday, August 28th 2010, 11:09 PM

I live for cantering, so I guess that's why I'm so fond of the position. I typically always use a reference, but I for some reason didn't this time.

Mara @ Sunday, August 29th 2010, 12:51 AM

omg yes cantering is so much fun ;A;
I've only been doing lessons so far though so I only get to canter when my instructor says ;w; I might lease a horse after I get my license though then I could do it whenever

I'm really hoping she'll have me try jumping soon though, it looks super fun *w*
Have you done any jumping or do you ride Western?

Rye @ Sunday, August 29th 2010, 1:22 AM

I ride primarily English, and yes, I jump, sometimes bareback too :D. I ride a 13 year old 13hh Missouri Fox Trotter Mare, she's a "Smutty" Buckskin. We jump 1-2ft in lessons, but I have jumped 2-3 feet before. "My" horse sometimes jumps way higher than the jump would suggest. She's a real cool horse. I also ride a 16.3hh Percheron Draft Mare, she's 24(?) though so she mainly walks and trots. Though we do also vault on her.

I stood on her back once. I also ride a quarter horse, shes 14.3 and 22 years old. We're also getting a Fjord, who is 14hh. I used to ride another Missouri Fox Trotter who was 16.3, he was amazing. His canter was really beautiful and fun to ride.
I don't own any of the horses, I just ride for their owners. I work at the ranch they are boarded at

I feel really lucky <3
I've also briefly ridden an amazing thoroughbred, and sat on another who was said to buck people off a lot haha. And I rode a shetland pony in a circle, then got off because I didn't want to hurt it. She's 11hh, and I weighed wayyyy too much for her lololol

i ride horses too yay! get out tree no one cares ok sorry ;___;

Rye @ Sunday, August 29th 2010, 10:50 AM

do tell

Tree @ Sunday, August 29th 2010, 11:37 AM

i've been riding for 8 years at the same yard. ...the end!
no but my favourite pony to ride is a black gelding called bobby and i think he's around 14hh? i'm not sure.
anyway yeah whenever people talk about horse riding i get all giddy because it's like, i couldn't live without it
i think the highest i've jumped is 4ft... mara you will like jumping it is insanely fun despite the fact that i have very little confidence

Mara @ Sunday, August 29th 2010, 6:01 PM

The pony I ride is a paint, Willy, when I first met him I was thinking "aww such a cute little paint" and he turned out to be this major brat.

Seriously it's the thing I look forward to learning the most~ and for me I know I can do stuff if I try but when it comes to like, competitive things I have zero confidence whatsoever. I know some people that get better in competitive situations (ex. my brother) but ugh.. it just makes me nervous and I constantly feel like I'm going to mess up. so it's more that type of thing I'm worried about.
but holy crap 4 feet xD that's like, jumping over a 3rd grader standing up

and I've noticed that like, all ponies names end with "-y" cause like.. the few I know are Willy, Candy, Lilly and then your Bobby are all named like that
I always find that funny lol

Tree @ Sunday, August 29th 2010, 7:39 PM

i know dgfhdjfh but i think the great thing about jumping is you just have to go for it
i mean when i turned the corner and saw the jump i was like shit what am i doing but i had to push on... imean it's not like i was going to bail now!! luckily i was on a very sensible and talented horse and she was like wheeeee
i ride with my friend rosie and have done for 8 years, we're at the same level which is good. she has the confidence that i lack but i have better balance, so we both manage to do things

Tree @ Sunday, August 29th 2010, 7:41 PM

my instructor also says we make very funny faces when we jump
leaning forward in the saddle and standing up in your stirrups tends to make you go like this: >:I
well.... me anyway......

Mara @ Monday, August 30th 2010, 5:06 PM

I can imagine xD; good thing you didn't fall off though that would hurt like mad
(which reminds me of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMlMrzgniK8)
that's awesome though, yeah I haven't found any irl riding friends yet to just ride with, they're probably easier to find when you're not just doing lessons I would imagine. I have good balance too, which I'm glad for. Otherwise there are a couple of times where I might have fallen off xD
and yeah you get all srs face while doing it
I guess when I'm focusing on stuff I get like that too cause one time when I was with my old instructor and we'd just just started cantering so I'm like OH GOD HOW DO YOU SIT THIS and was all srs face trying do it and I finally did it and I was all !

:D and she's like yay! you smile! cause I guess I get pretty srs face while concentrating too
