Description: Alright guys, I'm back with another drawing lesson I've sketched, inked and colored in livestream last night. In this new basic tutorial, I will show you "how to draw a rearing horse" in a flaming concept style. I had fun working on this guy, especially shading the intricate details in the background.

Let me tell you, color correcting is probably the most time consuming process, only because there's so many choices to choose from. Anyways, I hope you'll enjoy this one, I had fun working on it. If you'd like to see the rest of the elemental horses for this series, leave a comment below! Thanks for viewing and have fun!
