Please hit "download" for the REAL fullview, you can't well see the textures on normal DA full view.
No, it's not Ghost Rider. I drew this MONTHS ago and just now finished coloring and texturing. I'm currently working on a background for it. He's inspired by that old song "Ghost Riders in the Sky" and since none of you actually know that song, here goes nothing: An old cowpoke went ridin' out one dark and windy day, Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw A plowin' through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw. Yipie i ay Yipie i oh Ghost herd in the sky Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky He saw the riders coming hard... and he heard their mournful cry Yipie i ay Yipie i oh Ghost riders in the sky. Their face is gaunt their eyes were blurred their shirts all soaked with sweat They're ridin' hard to catch that herd but they 'aint caught 'em yet 'cause they've got to ride forever in the range up in the sky On horses snorting fire as they ride hard hear them cry Yipie i ay Yipie i oh Ghost riders in the sky. The riders leaned on by him he heard one call his name If you want to save your soul from hell a riding on our range Then cow-boy change your ways today or with us you will ride Tryin' to catch this devil herd.... a-cross these endless skies. Yipie i ay Yipie i oh Ghost riders in the sky. Ghost riders in the sky. Ghost riders in the sky. EDIT: I darkened and improved the coat. I wasn't happy with that shoppy looking shading, so I looked at real worn black leather versus the image. I've found that black garments are BLACK. I usually draw them as gray so the shading stands out more. But whatever, here he is. |

WHAT. IS. WRONG WITH ME.
Ack, but seriously, this is fantastic. I especially love the texturing job done to the guy's coat, vest and overall
also, great anatomy with the skeleton horse. Many people find that challenging to do for some reason. Good thing you overcame that
