Hard to believe, but it's been 12 years now since I tried making my first Mil Horse coat. It was a total disaster:) Finally in 2008 I started to get the hang of it. The warp tool in PS was a HUGE help. LOL ask our Lyne - I called and emailed her several times in total frustration- that is how we met back then:)

That's encouraging! Maybe I'll get better.

I have a canon TI rebel. Is this a good camera for this?

FL: I know a gray kitty I can get lots of pictures of if you are interested.

Janet, you sent me some but if they were sharper with some full body side views and full face views that would be great.

Taking a little break from updating my Ultra Textures 1 for Harry and doing some work on my Appy pack. Glad I took the break- I had gotten a little "stuck" on them, so had put them on the back burner for a while. Finally starting to like how the black and bay appys are looking now. Still very much WIP/still adding spots:)/haven't really started on manes, tails and fetlocks yet, but getting a lot closer.

Love the stripy hooves, and the visible white in the eye- and is that mottling around the mouth and chin on the black as well? You might have it on the bay too but it's not so visible with that lighting and angle, not on my monitor anyway. Once you're on to promo shots, can I request one of them to be a close-up of those kinds of Appy-specific details please?

The grey reminds me of one of the ponies I learned to ride on. He was called Bubbles :balloon03: (the other ponies roughly that size that I recall were called Oxo and Bovril. I don't know if non-UK folks will realise that those two names were in slightly bad taste, being basically gravy and meat broth respectively). Loving the textures so far!
