Doing little happy dances :)

Today I woke up to a far less swollen finger with a lot more range of motion. I'm still bracing it, things like opening a jar (an easy one) or sanding or anything with sideways motion is definitely not cool. All the same, there's very little bruising around the joint and tons less tenderness. I can also type a LOT easier with that finger (and a good sensitive keyboard) ;)

So thusly I sat down and studied what I did manage to get done in the past few days aside from my finger PT. :D


I am seeing a horse along the lines of what I wanted to create, being cruely honest with myself its still a long long ways off though. The face is homely as heck (not in a good homely way imo), but there's a lot more to be done there and it doesn't totally hurt my eyes right now. Left side didn't even hit my radar in my 'To Do' list today.

Here's the gallery. Here's the 'to do' summary given what I fiddled with and want to address most next. Photoshop fiddling is all great and fine until you forget what you altered and why. ;)

GALLERY HERE

• Cloned out peg
• Slighty flatter area to lumbar (pushed down just a tad)
• Tail tip rounding instead of inverting,
• Hoof shape ups around the heels
• Eye shape angled a tad more
• Nostrils narrowed for expiration
• Chin just a tad more defined towards jaw
• Ear shaped a tad more
• Forehead flattened a tad more before and after eye
• Blurred just to soften some ragged areas for less distraction (eye and tendons on rear leg the most)
