Now that was a good example of critism. So are we cool now FlamingSnowpaw?

Pretty snazzy! c: I'll give critique about just a few things; sorry for writing so much. xD

Their pasterns look a bit thick, but you're on the right track with them so thinning them out shouldn't be a problem with you. What I've also noticed in horse legs is that their legs look thinner with joints bulging out the most. (Thickness and such varies horse to horse, but it's a general pattern I see.)

And speaking of legs, I'd watch their balance. On the rearing horse, there's not much weight distribution and it looks possible that he may fall over. :c On the chestnut paint he looks a bit stretched out, though the balance on him looks okay.

I'd practice horse head shapes a bit more, but it's pretty good going without reference, I try that myself. c: Though there's a bit more shape to a horse's head and their cheek and a round muzzle, and on the rearing horse his cheek looks like it goes straight to his muzzle. (If that horse is supposed to be a mare I'm sorry. 3: )

For their manes and tails, I would suggest more movement. Hair has a lot of movement to it, even in horses. And with the length of these horses' manes and tails, it would be going in different directions (slightly, anyway) instead of one direction, especially since these horses aren't at top speed, though are moving rather quickly.

I'd also work on identifying your grass a bit more, as it looks kind of smudged with blades here and there. It may be a little more painstaking, but defining patches a bit more will really add to the detail. (And since we're on the background, awesome clouds!)

That being said, I would say horses are very much your forte. c: They look very nice. And great mouse work, it takes a lot of patience!

I dont really mind all those details, But have you seen the first one she made me?

In it for the artist. c: The people she does art for may not mind, but improving is still awesome.

I have indeed seen that one! o:

Wow this is great, dont listen to FlamingSnowpaw, I think its perfect!

She requested for critique.Critique is bold no matter what.
And about the examples,these are for running horses.The left one indeed should have the tail a bit more down.

Araibians inreal life hold their tails stright up in the air! My horse is half araibian and his tail goes straight up.

[Dusty_Vampire]

the tails look normal, i dont see what everyones talking about. When my horse gets excited (like when hes in a fight) he sticks his tail strait up in the air.
