I've been working on this for about a month now and I'm ready to move on. Despite all that, I'm still pretty happy with this. It's not perfect, but I like the general idea of it. Originally I planned to make a manip based off the song "Falling Slowly." All the stock I used, and the concept was all based off that song. But, then I heard the song "Take A Giant Step" by The Monkees and I thought it fit this even better. I spent most of my time working on the black horse's mane and tail. I'm still not entirely happy with them, but they turned out okay I guess. I'm terrible with water, but those are the best splashes I've ever done so even though they aren't great I'm still happy with those. I hate how the reflection turned out. I love how the other horse and the background turned out. Comments and/or favs are more than appreciated. Thoughtful/useful critique is also welcomed.

Guns make you stupid. Better to fight your wars with duct tape. Duct tape makes you smart.

I really like the text as well as the blend of warm and cool colors and the dark horse's tail. The mane looks a bit on the thin side, though the shape seems alright; maybe just try making duplicate layers of the mane to thicken it up? The something missing might be a touch of land. x-x Dunno. I just think that whatever is missing, is right there where water and sky meet.

Crazy or insanely smart?
You only think you know. =3
Imma do it!

Variation 2 ftw!
You're right about the black horse's mane being thin. I tried duplicating it, but it looked worse. I would have redone it, but I was feeling lazy.
Anyways, thanks again, I'm glad you like it.

horses taught me two things:
1. don't ever squat with spurs on
2. the canter is the cure to every evil
