• Horse crosses the finish line! 🐎

      Ok. So I finally committed myself to finishing the horse. My last post was about 4 or 5 months ago Id say, and I nearly gave up.

      I can see markings on here that arent right (some shading seems textured on the paper when it should be solid, and some lines arent soft enough, AND the gel pens are scratchy and well dont get me started on that!), but Im proud of myself for finishing.

      👉Id love some tips and suggestions to improve for my next one please, but I wont be changing this one as its time to move on.

      Ps all the tape I use on the border rips the paper! Even tape Ive tried to make less sticky. Argh!

      Love

      • Ik vind het heel knap gedaan! Jammer ja van de beschadigingen, petje af voor je doorzettingsvermogen !

        • don’t be hard on your self I😃 love it can see the fur and the tackle is fantastic good job you .!!! I think you need to pull tape off at a low angle keeping it close to paper and slowly pull it seems to work for me 👏

          • Really well drawn Nicole. Your details are great. I can see that you have put many hours into this drawing.

            Try using drafting tape instead of masking tape. That will solve the problem of ripping the paper when the tape is removed. It is a bit more costly but it goes a long way and you won’t have to worry about rip and tear anymore.

            Nicole, you’ve done such a good job with this horse! Honestly, you should be really proud of yourself. You nearly gave up, but you kept going and finished it, and that is a big achievement.

            I can see so much care in the fur and the tack. Don’t be too hard on yourself about the little things you would change. Take what you’ve learned into the next drawing and keep moving forward. You’re doing really well, Nicole!
