Ural Cossack

Cossack's are pretty awesome folk. Fantastic cavalrymen, I seem to think of them as either landscaping, adventurous romantics within the steppes of Europe or repressed tribes with pride for their country. *sarcastically* I had a lot of fun trying to figure out the anatomy of drawing a horse trotting without any references so. Like I said, don't point out nonsensical things that I know already. Anywho, this was another test to see if I was able to use as little colors as possible (which I surely failed at) since I had to enlarge and paint my friend's animation character for some convention and she had a tablet of..hm, I think about 4 colors? As this has at least 12 which is ridiculous. But anywho, I enjoyed doing this. Sorry for taking so long and if this is tripe.
