I really do not approve of pre-cut, pre-smudged, pre-detailed horses.
Honestly, there is nothing more disappointing than seeing a manipulation and thinking, "Wow, that's beautiful." and then finding out that all they really did was put the horse on the background and upload it.
Sure, they might tweak the lighting or something. But I feel like they're sliding by with half the work. It seems these pre-made horses are taking the manip world by storm.
After seeing one certain black friesian seven thousand times over, I have to admit that it's beauty is fading. The lack of originality is just stunning me.
I don't know, maybe you feel different
