(( thanks for the support! It really does make a big difference ))
Can I get any specific instructions/tips on how to do the following:
1. How do do the mane?
2. Fixing the Anatomy?
3. How to do texture?

This is a beauty <3
hmmm
mane: If you have a tablet, I'd use pen pressure for this (go here for the download) but it's not required. What I do is first make a loose sketch to get the shape, then overlap strokes with a small brush to create the hairs. It's easier to do this on another layer.

Anatomy: It looks really good! Especially since that's a hard angle >_< Do you have a reference? I think that back ear shape should be a bit more rounded than triangular, like the shape of the ear in front. here's a good drawing of a horse's head from different angles.

Textures: For really small hairs, I just overlap with a 1 pixel brush in varying shades. I'm not sure how to do the lips... maybe a soft brush to make soft wrinkly lines?

Hope that helps, it looks great so far! <3

Oh, thanks for reminding me, I need to put my reference up there...oops...Thank youuuuu sooo much this is a huge help! I actually don't use the tablet, but I'll do my best, like always. Thanks again!

Amazing! <3 The only thing I have to critique would be the neck, it just needs to be slightly wider and more curved; other then that, I love it! :O
