Description
Another thing from the old comic portfolio that I am no longer as proud of as I once was. Originally it was pencils only, but I felt like slapping colors on it might make it better. However, it just made all the things I didn't like about it all the more glaringly irksome. That stupid stupid horse. So we are done. So very very done.Also, what the hell was I thinking adding a comic cover based on a vaguely obscure movie from the 80s? WAY TO BE RELEVANT, MURI. THE KIDS WILL LOVE IT.
(oh looks, a doodle.)

Ladyhawke and everything about it belongs to people who are not me.

Very very nice. And I love 80's references! You just gained more awesomeness points in my book, Muri!

Ah, the 80s. Some people love it, some people hate it, some of us are stuck in it.
Thank you very much as always and for the fave as well!

Horses are very hard to draw even with the reference. Mine often end up looking like Moomins. XD
Not seen the film, but the cover looks ok to me. Nice interaction with the characters and the animals.
Maybe slightly more strong colors or clouds in the sky or darker coloring in the grass would have helped the image work better? The character and the horse are so dark that they grab attention a little bit away from the riders face and the bird. (Not an expert on this, though. Hope you don’t mind.

Horses are a disaster. My roomie grew up with them and I will never draw them to her satisfaction!
The movie is about a young thief who helps two lovers who are cursed to be a hawk by day (the woman) and a wolf by night (the man) so that they cannot be together.
Yeeaah, I reached the point where I can't care about making it better (there are actually a number of small things I didn't even bother coloring, I am just so DONE with this thing). At the same time, these are the kinds of problems you get when the main character wears 90% black and rides a black horse around the sunny Italian countryside. *headsmack*

Ouch. That’s not very nice. >.<
Premise sounds interesting. Dark characters with light sunny background sounds like a really tough combination for the composition.
Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude. Examining old images is just great way to improve. But true. Looking at old drawing that was really good in your head and not so good at paper is hard. -.-‘

No, in a way it is good! It means I have to challenge myself to be better and meet her strict criteria.
I didn't think you were being rude, just giving suggestions. In any other circumstance, I would be happy to hear them. Sometimes though, like in this case, I just know that I won't bother trying to fix them anymore but will try harder next time around.

Good point. XD
Ok. I’ll try to hold my tongue then until you start posting new things then.

Oh no, feel free to say whatever you want to whenever you want to! I don't mean for people not to comment, I am just saying that it isn't like I will be going back and changing anything based on their suggestions at this point. That's all.

Ok. Good to know.
I usually don't mean that people should try to change anything based on the suggestions (I don’t like touching old work too). Just pointing things out.

oh that movie, mixing new age music with a medieval time period. nicely done by the way.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, the music was...quite something. But on the whole, not a terrible film.
Thank you very much and for the fave as well!
