Description
His attitude can be gauged by the looks of the skies. I would say, considering the greenish hue, bright lightening, and the thick stormclouds, that Tempest is pretty furious right now.I had asked ~LiLBlueHorse516 quite some time ago if I might draw Tempest. His white eyes really struck me. I started the sketch a couple of months ago and just got around to finishing him up. I'm very pleased with the result. It's just annoying that Connor's scanner is more sensitive than mine and captures all the pencil strokes...I guess I'll just have to work on making my pictures smoother from now on.

Uuh white eyes and black coat, scaaary.
He's so pretty! I love the shading here and the sky looks awesome too, but I'm stuck to his eye.
Pencil strokes... ugh my scanner seems to have a thing for those, sometimes it even looks like he makes them appear out of nothing.
Is this done with prisma colore dpencils too? Damn it, I want to get those epcnils so badly, but they don't sell them anywhere around here...

Some of the pencils are Prisma, some are Crayola. The horse is all prisma though, and then everything else is kind of a mix. I wish I could figure out how to get rid of the streaks though. Thanks for the

OOOO that's really cool looking! I love the contrast between his coat and mane! ^.^ and his eye is scary - in a good way! Good job!!!

Very good! If you haven't already sprayed on fixative, you could try using a stiff bristled paint brush to soften the pencil strokes. The technique works for me.

I usually don't use a fixative anyway, and I've never tried that technique before. Maybe I'll give it a shot in the future. Thanks for the tip
