OMG it worked! Do you know how long I've been trying to upload this? DA has been hating me lately not letting the upload work for me. Anyways, I'm a terrible person! This was originally supposed to be a Christmas present for *Sabriel-TS but I didn't get it done until February. And then I couldn't get it uploaded until now. It could have been considered a Fringe Friday present, if there was a new Fringe tonight. :P

*Sabriel-TS loves Fringe, so I started by browsing quotes from Walter who, let's face it, is one of the most profound people on TV right now. The crazy ones always are. When I found this one I really liked it and decided to make something based on it.

As for what I did, after cutting out the horse I replaced the back legs since the real ones were too grass covered. The back legs are actually one leg. Hopefully it's not too obvious. ^^; I spent forever on the mane, but it didn't give me as much trouble as the tail did. And here's the best part: after working on the freaking tail for nearly two months (true story) I ended up covering it up with mist! Originally I was going to have the horse coming out of a black hole, but that would mean erasing the tail and back legs completely, and after all that hard work there was no way I was going to do that! :XD: So I added the mist, which was a bit of a struggle, too. I wanted it to look like the horse was popping out of the mist, I suppose it kind of looks like that.

There is a shadow there! I remembered that. It's hard to see, seeing as there's no strong light source and the mist kind of covered it up, but it's there. :nod:
