THIS IMAGE IS NOT MEANT TO BE TAKEN AS 100% REALISTIC.
PLEASE DO NOT HARP ON ME ABOUT THE FOAL'S PINK COLOR.
I MADE HER PINK FOR A REASON. THANKS!


I have been working on this manip on-and-off for probably two weeks or so, maybe more. I am extremely proud of it. Theses are the best manes and tails I have ever done, though I know I need more practice. Personally I think these manes are too stringy with the hair and need to have slightly thicker strands. I'm getting there, though!

Anyway, so this is Origin and Ages. Origin is the strawberry roan foal, and Ages is the classic silver stallion. I was thinking that Origin and Ages could be from the same herd and after some kind of disaster (fire, predator attack, etc) Ages was called upon to take care of Origin after her parents were slain. Ages is pretty old and knows that he won't be around to take care of Origin forever, but having her around brings a new joy into his life that he never thought was possible. He hopes that he will be able to stay with Origin at least until she grows up and can fend for herself. He is determined to give her all of his wisdom before he passes on.

I'm not sure if I want to bring them to RLTW or not but we'll see.

ALSO, Ages is the classic silver from my recent adoptables set! Only I put his coronet on the wrong leg. Oh well. xD

ALSO ALSO, I am opening up Critiques on this piece. I really want to know what you guys think I can do to improve! I also want to know what things I might be doing completely wrong, so have at it! Just don't be mean about it, please. I am open to constructive criticism but I'd rather you guys not just point out stuff you don't like and not tell me why or not tell me how I can fix them or improve. Thanks!!!
