My giant leap

Description

The young mare had found her place in the dragon horse herd at Imperial Delaroche Stables. Though she stayed far away from the big Oka-Ryuu male and the Asian Dragon Horses weren't really her friends. the only sidekick she had was Faolan, the Arctic Dragon Horse male ... even when she had already made him clear she didn't want to know him, the puppy looking stallion returned each day, with his happy playful face. the young boy just didn't wanted to understand, so she allowed it ... until that line.

But today was different. together with the entire herd, they had moved trough land to RMS for the biggest Dragon Horse show.
trimmed, washed and with their nails nice cut, all horses were ready to show of what they were worth.

Tacked up, Talley was ready for her class. since she was still young, Takahashi decided to enter her in the mare halter. she was under dressage training, but she was still to bold and had to much energy to enter a class under saddle.
The mare sniffed and her tail was curled around her back. the wind flow trough her fluffy manes and she placed her claws in the sand below her.

a strong breeze lifted up some leaves just on the moment she was trotting. Her fluffy ears flicked and a grin appeared on her face. she placed her hooves under her body and lifted up her forehand to jump over the line of leaves that just passed her nose.

:fingerscrossed: I really hope the show is placed outside, otherwise I have a big problem XD and I just love the outcome of this picture :giggle: when I was working on the lineart, I was just thinking: 'this is gonna end bad!'
but while I was shading and coloring, it just got more shape and with the right music to lead me, this is the result :D

PS: in my current timeline she is only 3 years old. but when the show ends, she is 5 XD

Wow the lines look fantastic with your coloring! I wish you good luck in the show. We would be a scary team for a collab show. :)
