Soooo yes I have worked on my shading a LOT! And I think most of you are going to kill me if I tell you that this was just a shading practice and it only took me 1 and a half hours!
But that doesn´t mean that I put no effort in it, far from it: I think this is one of my best shaded fullbodys ever!

*Edit: I change the color of the background, now it looks like sunset and I think that is much better and more dramatic^^

Story  (512 words)

"Ahhhhh, what the...", Fiona screamed when she saw her black Asgardian-Horse mare. This was totally not what she expected, when she woke up this morning and went outside. The mare had broken out of her stall and were running around on the yard now. Gladly she hadn´t run through the flowers, only ate some of them. She still had some in her mouth and were chewing them with pleasure, they must be tasty. But Fiona was just about to faint, when she saw the mess at the stable. The worst thing: they weren´t at home, this was a foreign stable. Hopefully the owners would have understanding for what had happened, their yard looked really bad after daydream was running through it.

The first thing the brown haired girl would need to do, was catching that horse again. The black mare nickered and galloped away. "Hey wait for me!", Fiona screamed and started running after the cheeky mare. Fiona just wasn´t fast enough, she had chased her mare through the whole stable now, they were running through the paddocks, the meadows, the stable, the main house where everybody slept. But now Fiona couldn´t ran anymore, she tried to breath and leaned herself against a tree. When the girl found her breath again she saw her black mare Daydream still running over the cleaning place. Someone had forgotten a brush there, Daydream abruptly stopped. She expanded her nostrils and snorted, then she turned around on her hind legs, rear very high and nickered. She looked at Fiona, who was just standing up again and approached her horse, but Daydream didn´t think of standing still: She Bucked and ran away again.

The teenager girl sighed, what should she do now? She didn´t know where her horse was now and what trouble it would make right now. Fiona took the brush and put it back in its right place. Then she swept some mud with a broom from the pavement. The girl looked around, what mess had her horse also caused: The doghouse was overturned, also the feeding dish for the two dogs and three grey cats were widespread on the whole court, especially the dog and cat food in it. Fiona squinched up her face, cat food smells really bad, at least the girl thought so.

Just at this moment her trainer Lukas came around the corner and behold! He had caught the furious daydream, the mare was furious because she was caught. She reared and bucked the whole time, but Lukas hold her tuft and she couldn´t get away anymore. "Are you looking for this?", Lukas asked the brown haired girl and she nodded shyly. It was so embarrassing that not only the horse ran away, but she also wasn´t able to catch the mare again. "I think you will need some time to brush Daydream  and get her clean again!", Lukas laughed and pointed at the dirty, nervous Asgardian mare. Fiona sighted, at least she had her horse back!

Now she would need to prepare her beautiful black mare for the coming haltershow!
