Artist's Comments

"Eyes red and wild, the umber stallion wheeled and plunged once more at the dark unicorn. Tai-shan reared and threw himself against the other's side, catching him just as he pivoted. The flatbrow's hindquarters strained, forehooves pawing the air. The dark unicorn lunged, shifting his whole weight forward until, hind hooves skidding, his opponent crashed to the icy ground."

- from "Dark Moon", second book in Firebringer Trilogy

--------

Another speed paint illustration from the Firebringer Trilogy. Aljan, known as Tai-shan in this book, fights the First Stallion of the Da (name for normal horses). A few scene elements missing, but I wanted to keep the attention on the fighting stallions. Wild!!

Time: 3 hrs?
Tool: Open Canvas 3.0

You, my dear, satisfy my cravings in a fandom that receives nowhere near as much love as it should. Yonks ago I adopted Lell's name as my online persona which has long since skewed down into a version more of my own, but it was my first passion - the first series I wrote for, the first one that really caught me up.

I always enjoy seeing your art for this and I should be punished thoroughly for not commenting enough. ^^ (Indeed, I believe I shall go and sort through your gallery now and pay homage where it is due....) Your work is beautiful and I always enjoy your takes on the characters.

I shall NEVER complain about your spammage. xD Especially if you choose to do something with Lell or Calydor.

Also: much love for Dane Cook. <3

This is gorgeous! I'm so glad to see more fan-art for these books. And so well done, too.

It reminds me so much of the drawing style on the covers of the old Black Stallion books..Satin was always my favorite (the red wild stallion)
