How to draw a War Horse

[bestshowontheweb]

I'm referring to the photo.

[bestshowontheweb]

Damn! That is THE WARHORSE!

I mean, just look at it! "Four white socks, and brown all over. With a white patch on his head like so. *Makes shape on the horses head*"

Shoo, I swear that that is the horse that the movie was based around.

Another great drawing! Are you sponsored by Rotring???

[ShooRaynerDrawing]

@TheSCORCHTHETORCH No, I should be :D They really are my favourite pens. I got some freebies a year or so ago, but maybe I should contact them again, or would you think I'd sold out - I need to get paid for this somehow :D

Wow what a beautiful album, I wish I had one like that.

Were your great great greeeeat grand parents royal? or maybe had a high place in the society? From the pictures they seem like high class people, Anyway, very beautiful video indeed.

[ShooRaynerDrawing]

@fbspin No, they ran the local post office. I thin photographs were so special in those days people dressed up and maybe even hired fancy clothes to look more prosperous :)

@CHANNEL7595 Thanks :)

[iacomus88]

Shoo, You say in your description you use bristol board what bristol board do you use ? What Bristol board would you recommend for doing pen and ink work and colour tinting ?

[ShooRaynerDrawing]

@iacomus88 I call it Bristol Board but in th UK we call it Cartridge Paper. I use Daler Rowney 220 gram heavy weight cartridge paper. It has a nice smooth finish and is acid free so it doesn't go yellow. Does that help?

[CHANNEL7595]

@ShooRaynerDrawing i am a 12 years old boy and i love to draw.

and i think i will bye water colors and start drawing like you.

so what do you recomend me to bye.

by the way i watch at least 5 of your videos every day:)

[ShooRaynerDrawing]

@CHANNEL7595 slow down - you'll run out of videos! see my watercolour 101 video. Buy the best you can afford, but you don't need the best to learn. have fun and good luck :)

[jswhiss]

I love this!! :^D

[ShooRaynerDrawing]

@jswhiss Thanks :)

[Matte96x]

this was really nice how long does it take you to come up with the ideas?

[ShooRaynerDrawing]

@Matte96x I've been thinking of doing a War Horse vid since September. I had to find the photo album and work out what I was going to do with it and do some research about the Essex Yeomanry online. Then I practiced a couple of times and filmed it a couple of times, as pretty much a copy of the photo and then I decided it was a bit boring, so I practiced a couple of times more with the new action look, and filmed it. Does that answer your question?

[Matte96x]

@ShooRaynerDrawing ok yeah thats a fine asnwer:)
