Description

Iiiiiiit's chiaroscurotime again! x3 I made a knight character the other month for an rpg club campaign that never really got off the ground, and ended up with a huge outpourage of drawings of him and finishing them in reverse order. So here you have his horse, there's a half-linearted one of both of them and their armour, and about...14 pages of sketches of him? xD He's cool, I luff him.

But yah, this is his horse, Morgenstern. (German: Morning Star) You can't tell terribly well because of the epic black, but his armour should conform fairly well to 15th century Germanic horse barding, with a touch of artistic license (technically German crinets were often...less covering) and fancying up. BECAUSE DUNDUNDUN...his owner is a Teutonic Knight. They are beyond awesome. And because I swear I live to counteract stereotypes, the knight is short and scrawny and a deserter, and Morgenstern is bay and not black or grey, and has a habit of chasing mares at inconvenient times. But he is a big destrier. Couldn't let that one go. x3

I think this was my second chiaroscuro. Touchups in PS. It did a stint as my wallpaper; the file is 1024 wide, 1280 in Download, 1600 here, and looks fine with black letterboxing in squarish aspect ratios like mine. x3
