-HEE Click- Did a quick piece for my girly instead. (I know the sabino isn't the same, I'm gonna reroll her to something closer later.)

Oh that's beautiful! Suitably different from the other use of it posted earlier, imo, it's a different feel :)

I just feel guilty posting it at the same time. I've got stock sitting around to use that I know has been used before, but this just feels wrong.
I could *maybe* redo it with a different stock.

Asfa, unless the idea seems to be really similar, like same horse recolour, atmosphere, theme, and so on, I really don't see anyone being upset about it (or even having the right to be upset, in my honest opinion). Free stock is free stock. I even find horse stock from others' art and go "Oooo I want to use that in the future!"

Oooh it’s super pretty! I love the white marking and the eye, really striking

Yeah I dug it out from the depths of Adobe. But I suppose I can show it if I'm just going to stash it.

It was my first attempt at messing with white markings and I kinda really like the fur.

Yeah, same except I mostly use Adobe… I guess it might be a bit awkward if you’ve used the same horse and background together but (personally) I don’t see a problem with that. Unless someone has bought sole rights to an image (unlikely and not an option through Adobe!) they’ve no recourse

Fair play! You could always post it in the future 😊 Although now I’m curious to see it!

I basically only ever pull stock from Colourize-Stock and DancesWithPonies, so I'm convinced all of my horse stock has been used before xD but I get what you mean, it does make it a little awkward when they're directly next to each other in the forum
Asfamoth
04:45:23 Asfa
Naw, it was just a "f*ck around and find out" piece so I think I'll leave it. I don't wanna be that person.
Oakmoss Stud
04:39:48 Oak
Definitely still post it! There's only so much stock in the world, and I'm sure your style is still unique enough to be different :)
Ashcroft Park Stud
04:38:53 Ash
If it were me, I’d still post it - such is the way of stock images that you’re bound to get people using the same combos! If you’re worried you could add in when you started the piece into the description for your auction
Asfamoth
04:34:37 Asfa
Oh man this is awkward. I *just* finished an art piece and was about to put it up for auction... only to find someone posted one earlier today with the exact same stock. Now I don't know what to do with it...

Y'all, I have no idea what to improve on. Because I wanna improve everywhere. So I can't pick just one thing to focus on. I also am SO stuck between styles I want. Should I stick my more painty style, is that what y'all like? It's fun being more painty, but I absolutely love sharper styles that look a bit more "natrual" I guess, its just so pleasing to the eyes.

I'll post my gallery below so y'all can see my recents lately. I definitely need help/tips on eyes. They kill me to do. Be as harsh as you need, because that's the only way imma learn anything. Besides, Ari's a bitch I can take it :')

Critique me, everywhere.

This isn't much of a 'critique', but your style is amazing, especially the hair! You've definitely improved from when I bought art from you some moons ago.

I really love your horse anatomy, it's really spot on! The only thing I have to critique is the hair, if you are going for realistic that will have to be an area to work on(looks kinds like vines more than hair). As I notice you do some semi-realistic which looks good, but my attention get caught on the hair that doesn't quite look right. You've done a couple really nice ones!

I'm not a HEE artist but something i've learned from drawing is your style is CONSTANTLY changing... you're trying new things (even without knowing it) each time you draw anything... look at your drawings and figure out what YOU like about them... make notes of what you like and what you want to change up your drawings are beautiful but your style is your own and its constantly changing you do something a bit different each time you draw lol... do what you like and figure out what you don't like if you have 2 ways you like to draw horses figure out what you like or don't like about the styles you use and see what you come up with by combining what you like from the two styles. Your art is really really beautiful though :) I looked at your gallery and its stunning :3

I love more painted type looks. I don't like sharp art but also not super smudgy. I like softness. I prefer your current style to the style you practiced with your latest premade. As an artist though I'm constantly trying different things trying to work out my own techniques

This. All of it. 100%. Thanks Hollow for writing it out so I didnt have too 😂.
No, part of the reason I love your art so much is your style, your unique touch! Sure, if you arent enjoying, that's ok too, it's your art so try something new! <3 Every time I see a piece of art done by you, I 100% know it's you without looking at credits! Personally, as an artist myself, that's what I strive for, uniqueness of "my" style. And you have literally done it perfectly!
.
Some points I notice on your current style (so not the new one)
- the eyes, I only noticed them becuase you pointed them out on your post, and I LOVE eyes, I feel like they draw the entire piece together and I also love the way I do eyes. So, if you'd like, just pm me, and I can give you a "tutorial" so to speak, and you can help me becuase I've been wanting to plan one for a while, but you could help me test it out :D if you wanted to of course.
- I mean, I really dont have much other critique, on your very last piece, the shadows on the horse (near shoulder, ears, belly) were very unnecessarily sharp and contrasting so I would smudge them down or blur them down a bit
- also, on white markings (need to do a tutorial for them too so pm me!) I think if you copied them on another layer and take a rough watercolor eraser around the edges at a low opacity, it might help making them look more realistic
.
:D Your awesome Ari!!

Honestly I really love your style of hair and like what Hollow and Tranquility have both said that the painted look is awesome and is what makes your art unique. I also prefer your current style rather then the last piece you practised but everyone is different so others might like that style more. Not really much I can think to critique cause I'm not that great at doing that haha.
