Description

*further edit*
The nasty description below pertains to people who have no issues stealing other people's artwork. If you don't do this then don't bother getting upset because it does not pertain to you. thank you.

*EDIT*
I put a huge nasty watermark right over the top of it since you talentless twats can't respect the fact that I put work into this and instead you decide to steal it, hide/smear/fade/darken/shit all over my signature and credits! I guess I shouldn't be surprised this gets stolen so much since it had wolves and horses all in one and I know how much you children just loove to steal that shit to use for your own crummy pages
I didn't mind it when folks asked me to use it as a background. I could have cared less if you printed it and put it on your wall... but I will not tolerate somebody wiping out my credits as if they are meaningless. Then have the audacity to PUT your OWN sigs on it. You have no morals. So don't get all whiney about this new change. Blame those that fucked it up for the rest of you that just wanted to enjoy looking at it. That's what I hate about non-artists, you don't understand nor probably give a shit about the feeling we put into our artwork..us REAL artists. Yeah you know it's true. I say this cocky sentence because I've seen it so many times that yes there are two groups of people. Non-artists and real artists... eat it lol

Another photo-manip. I started on this one first before the Battlecry one.

This one is very similiar to Wolfstare but I just decided to do a grey horse since the wolves and it looked similiar, giving them sort of a unity.

I really like how I did the horse as I photoshopped his eye to be closed and his mouth to form a howl.

Thanks to these artists for the wonderful photos!

Impact

This is my first critique, so bear with me hehe.
The overall manipulation is extremely well done, placement of the animals into the scene was done very well and I think it was clever to hide the feet of the wolves behind rock, since I assume the feet were cut off by grass. (If this is the case)
The vision of this is really strong, it reminds me of mystical spirit relations with animals, Indian history, or just a wonderfully crafted bond between two powerful animals.
The lighting and shadow work was also well carried out.
Cropping is extremely good, you even have the tiny details of the hairs on the horse's chin. But though the edge fur on the wolves looks quite realistic it might be a bit too "fluffy" for wolves. Seeing the individual hairs instead of more ruffled clumps, I mean.
The only things that I see that bothers me is the top of the horses neck, right where the mane starts, it seems the clone tool was used on one spot for covering something and it kind of chopped it up. Small thing though, not much to notice.
The wolf in the sky seems to be really grainy, though I suppose this couldn't be helped too much with the particular photo you used.
Overall, well carried out, great photomanipulation!
