This is my entry for =nikkayla's contest to draw your favorite fictional horse character. I choose Shetan, the Black Stallion, from the mind of Walter Farley. :aww:

This scene is from the race at the end of The Black Stallion Returns, where Shetan is about to steal the lead from the Bedouin stallion, Sagr. I wanted to include Sagr bc I always thought he was insanely gorgeous! :faint: Almost steals the show! :XD: I intentionally tried to make Alec look like Kelly Reno (the actor from the films), but Abd-al-Rahman (the Shiekh on Sagr) I had to make up, much to my horror...

Seriously I tried so hard to find references to make this easier for me, but in the end I only used this insanely small one for their poses: [link] and an equally small pic from Hidalgo to help me with the tack designs. Oh! And a few different desert pics for the background (didn't want to take credit for that! ;P) But that's it. O_O Hence this drawing taking me TWO DAYS to finish! Geez...needless to say, I'm glad it's done. :tombstone:

Longest comment ever! I better stop now before I get long-winded. :paranoid:
