Description

This is my beautiful girl, WBS Carousel Dreams. I've really been struggling with a my art lately, always trying to make things super realistic and perfectly proportioned, and I've been ignoring the things I love to draw and trying to erase my own style. Today I wanted to get back to it. Thicker lines and exaggerated poses are something I really love to draw. 

If you guys like this style (my natural style) I'm thinking of doing a series of YHH carousel horses. Let me know what you think! I love this style, even if it does take friggen forever to draw.

The Court of Nine Lives

How many hundreds of years has it been since I laid eyes on our patron deity? I can still see that moment as clearly as the scorched spots in my retinas. Admission into the Court of Nine Lives isn’t voluntary, Ilene. My role was predetermined, and my brother but an inevitable casualty in a cosmic war without borders. Intermission The Court of Nine Lives “Oh, for heaven’s sake, how the hell do you keep catching them?” Itrit spat as his brother scooped up another fish about the size of his arm and dropped it into the bucket at his feet.  “I keep telling you, little brother, just because you’ve got bait at the end of your line doesn’t mean the fish’ll come biting.” He said, slipping a silvery hook through another chunk of meat and casting the line into the water.  “What in the devil’s name do you mean?”  “Look.” He pointed to Itrit’s fishing rod, which sat alone, crooked, under the seat of their small wooden rowboat.  “So?”  “So, we’ve been out here three full hours, and you

LILY AND THE BOG DRAGONS MOOD/SYNOPSIS

LILY AND THE BOG DRAGONS MOOD SOUNDTRACK/SYNOPSIS WRITTEN on Jan 22nd, 2026, at 10:07am… NOTE: This is not my own soundtrack, but rather a collection of songs that I thought worked well in a custom playlist on my iPhone. This is used to set the mood throughout the story, and it is what I use when writing Lily and the Bog Dragons. All songs and rights belong to their original owners respectively, and no copyright infringement is intended. If you want to understand how the mood works, follow the sequence and listen to the songs either on YouTube or iTunes to understand what kind of a story I wish to write. FURTHER NOTE: Any selection that says NO MUSIC is set as only-dialogue with no background music. In other words, silent moments in a hypothetical movie/motion comic. I’m only working with what I can draw, not what I wish to visualize on a big silver screen. That’s for the future to decide. EXTRA NOTE: This is the synopsis of the story. Some parts of the plot are left out to keep this

The Symphonic Reversal Part 3

Chapter 1: The Hollow Hum The gates of the Fort creaked shut behind Kalo, the sound echoing like a tombstone being slid into place. He didn't look back at Sunniva or the scholar Skor. He couldn't. Behind his spectacles, his eyes were narrowed, his brain already miles away, running the calculations across the shimmering salt-flats to the Brass-Clan Oasis. By the time he reached the outskirts of his home, the moons were high. The Great Harvester—a massive, rusting windmill designed to pull moisture from the air—stood silent. Around it, the tents of his people were huddled together like frightened animals. "Kalo returns!" a voice cried out. It was Mizik, the Clan Elder. He hobbled forward, his scales a dull, dusty grey. Behind him, dozens of thirsty Kobolds emerged, their eyes bright with the desperate hope that only a savior can provide. Mizik reached Kalo, his breath hitching in a dry, rattling wheeze. He ignored the formalities, his claw trembling as he pointed to the

[CV] Beowulf - Gust of Luck

The heavy winds blasted Beowulf’s herd with little mercy. It would dip in severity for a while, giving them a break, only to pick up again. The dry air twisted and tangled their manes and tails and irritated their eyes. Some of them attempted to hide under the shelter the pen provided, only to find that it didn’t do much. Others decided to bear it outside, figuring it didn’t matter where they stood. Foals stood in the shadows of the adults whose larger bodies protected them from the brunt of it. The humans were notably absent today. They came in for the morning and evening feedings, and put fly masks on the tame horses in the other pasture. A few of them came by the pen and peered at the mustangs, debating something the mustangs couldn’t understand, before returning to the safety of their home. Other than the wind, it was a rather uneventful day. The minutes seemed to drag on, with the mustangs not being able to do much but putter around and wait for something to happen. When night

[CV] Beowulf - Too Much Fun

After the fire, the herd traveled to the lake to seek the comfort of water. The forest fire did not follow them and died out as the dawn approached. Dahlia coughed and complained that her lungs hurt and Nahuatl limped from her burns but otherwise the herd was unharmed. The lake bustled with activity. Herds splashed in the water or grazed on the surrounding plains. Beowulf’s herd found a spot of their own on the southern end of the lake. The sun was high and hot, dazzling Beowulf with its reflection off the water’s surface. He didn’t mind if his herd mingled with the others, as long as no one wandered off alone and remained within reasonable distance, but Barcelona came up to him with worries of Kunai’s whereabouts. He had gone to play with Takeshi, Balerion, and some colts from a neighboring herd. Takeshi and Balerion returned an hour later, without Kunai in tow and claiming to not know where he went. Barcelona seemed to lose track of her foals one way or another, a thought Beowulf

[CV] Beowulf - Wander in the Dawn

The atmosphere in the herd was heavy. They had survived the cold temperatures and scarce forage of winter well enough, but the loss of Kali and Helena and the recent threat to Takeshi and Thanatos’s lives plummeted morale. The normally playful foals stayed close to their mothers sides and Beowulf and Ambrose kept a more vigilant watch of the herd. Even the normally spunky Takeshi behaved himself, staying meekly close to Anri as his wounds from the mountain lion slowly healed. Petunia needed to get away from the suffocating tension, even if only for a little bit. She waited for the sun to rise, painting the sky in hues of vibrant oranges and faded blues. Ambrose left to patrol the area, while Beowulf was deep in conversation with Dahlia. Petunia wasn’t sure if Dahlia’s distraction was a coincidence or if her twin sister could somehow sense that she wanted some alone time, but Petunia took the opportunity to make her silent exit. She wouldn’t go far, as all she wanted was some time to

[CV] A New Ally

The blizzard had seemed to finally blow itself out. Wisps of snow blew through the canyon and danced around the horses’ feet as they made the ascent. Perseus shook out his mane, sending gobs of snow flying in all directions, as he led the way. Looking across the valley, he was glad that they had found the canyon when they did. The landscape was completely changed now and covered in a thick layer of snow and ice. The sun rising in the east cast a beautiful light through the icicles hanging in the tree branches. Percy marveled at the sight for a moment before his heart sank.How on earth would they find food?Before he could worry much longer,...

[CV] Howl (85) - Brace for a Storm

“You call this a storm?” shouted Santiana, a wild light in her eyes matching the flashes of lightning.  “Yes, I do!” Howl roared back, struggling to make himself heard over the monsoon. The Lead Stallion’s ears were pinned against his head, his blue eyes narrowed to tiny slits, as he unsteadily put one hoof in front of the other, being as careful as he could, leading the herd down the rocky slope. A nasty squall had taken them entirely be surprise, far away from any real shelter. Ordinarily, Howl would have the herd hunker down and wait out the worst of the rain and wind, but Shiver was heavily pregnant and had begun shakingly violently from the lashing wet and cold. Unwillingly to separate the herd in such dangerous weather meant he was taking them all to a dank overhang of rock in the shadow of the mountains. Even Fleetwood seemed to struggle, usually the most sure-footed of the mares, as she skidded and slipped her way down the treacherous embankment. Sorin stayed by her side

[CV] A Dreary Day

Fat raindrops lazily fell from the grey sky, plipping and plopping across the herds’ backs. Breigo blinked against the drizzle and snorted in disdain. A fog had rolled in as well, making patrolling even more difficult. He hated this kind of weather, and not only because it was physically unpleasant. Who knew what could try sneaking up on them. He shook some of the wet out of his mane and carefully picked his way down the hillock he’d been standing atop. Firefoot pranced toward him, always in a cheery mood despite the rain, and gave a quick bow. ”Hey there, boss.” he said with a cheeky grin. ”Everyone is present and accounted for.” Breigo...

CV | Bramble #137 | The Release

The holding pens were absolute chaos. A trio of wide eyed bachelors charged rampantly through the chutes connecting the makeshift pens, shying away from Bramble’s pinned ears as they ran past his pen. The wild bay bachelor balked, sending his two leopard friends skidding through the dusty footing and causing their brightly colored sabino friend to stumble. Alecto barked out an order at them to keep moving.  Alecto and Bramble had been fortunate enough to warrant a private pen, allowing Bramble to heal without too much interference. Most of the wild eyed mustangs roaming through the larger, and more crowded, holding pens had no such luck. Every so often the humans culled some of them and allowed them to go free. Just yesterday a respectable band stallion, Medieval, and his herd had been allowed to go. Alecto hoped he and Bramble would be next. From their vantage point in the small pen they could see that the wildfires were slowly starting to die out, the valley coated in cool white

CV | Sreten #137-2 | Aging

“Pick up the pace little man,” Ardere called over his shoulder to his young cousin, Rodrick. A muffled grunt and the sound of hooves beating rapidly against sage and stone was young Rodrick’s only reply. It wasn’t often that Ardere allowed the younger colt to tag along on his adventures, but today the bay dun Appaloosa yearling had felt unusually generous. But only on the condition that Rodrick keep up, and not slow him down. “What’s the big hurry anyways, cousin,” Rodrick grumbled, finally catching up to the much larger Ardere. “This,” Ardere pointed with his velvety nose towards a spot beyond the hazy green sage brush, “Is what the big hurry is, Rodrick.” Rodrick’s eyes went wide with utter amazement at the scene laid out before them. Far out on the prairie two battle scarred stallions sparred, dancing to and fro whilst landing hit after hit. The colts were mesmerized by this deadly dance.  “What are they fighting over,” Rodrick whispered as Ardere shushed him and pushed him

CV | Sreten #137-2 | Familiar Face

The weather in Cottonwood Valley had been strange as of late. One moment it would be sunshine and rainbows only for the next to be torrential downpours. The influx of strange weather had brought on a series of floods, causing the once grassy meadows to become a swampy mess. Many of the herds within the valley chose to travel to higher elevations up the mountains in search of drier ground. But not Sreten’s herd, no Sreten’s herd was remarkably undeterred by the soggy grazing grounds. Shelly reasoned that wet grass was just as good for you as dry grass and, well, nobody ever really argued with Shelly. Thus the herd stuck around, mowing down the damp turf around them. The greenery made for a stunning scene as Thistle and Pepper’s brilliant chestnut coats made a stark contrast with the emerald fields. Banshee too looked exceptionally beautiful, the golden morning light bouncing gently off her red dun hide. Sreten certainly had a lot to be thankful for, and looking around at his herd he

Codex Quest(s): A Codex Equus Story (Part 101)

The Gaming panel was taking place in a larger room than the one in the Animation panel. In fact, upon closer examination from the inside it looked much bigger than it should be on the outside. This distortion of space was quickly confirmed by those accompanying them. “This room is built specifically to accommodate Giant creatures.” Victress Vale explained, going by the information she was privy to while co-organising this year’s media convention. “Most rooms and buildings are already designed with that in mind, given the truly great sizes dragons could grow, but sometimes extra space is needed to accommodate big guests, especially in large numbers.” There is indeed a great crowd present. Thanks to Splash Page calling ahead, they were able to secure some of the best seats as VIP guests, a table close to the main screen and the front stage where the panelists would be set up to show their stuff and answer questions.
