I wanted to see how long it would take me to sculpt a horse. I started it Wednesday at noon and worked on it for 6 hours, then on Thursday I worked on it for 5 hours.

I'm not happy with the eyes, I think I might redo them. Eventually I'm going to sculpt armor on it, so maybe the eyes won't be noticeable.

The eyes appear a little too high up the head and perhaps horizontal instead of vertical? just my ignorant opinion.

Otherwise terrific :-)

yes, the eyes are located lower in the skull and should be rotated by about 90°.
The rest looks fine to me, proportions are good, detail is superb. I know how hard it is to sculpt animals, I tried to do an oxen once and messed up the size of the head. :(

Too far back from the muzzle and twice as large as the eyes should be. Otherwise, great sculpt.

Yeah, those eyes aren't right.

I'm going to tackle fixing them today.

I reworked the eyes and updated the pics.

They could be better, but I'm going to leave them as-is for now.
