Awww, thank you! you are too kind.
I am new to using Chicken Paint, but about 6-10yrs ago I used to be fairly proficient at using GIMP to make photo manips, so learning to draw/paint wasn't terribly hard. I work with horses, so I'm fairly familiar with coloration, which helps with shading. I also highly recommend looking up some of the equine coloring tutorials on Deviant Art. Even those geared towards Photoshop can be helpful to learn techniques and tips for doing different coats, patterns, and adding more attention to details.
Trust me, I am FAR from being proficient as I want to be. I still have PLENTY to learn myself
