Prompt 3: chocolate palomino (ft. Iguin)

This prompt list by @camelidae looked fun so I decided to give it a shot, it's always nice to have an excuse to draw some unicorns :>

Unicorns! Hey guys! Did you know that I love unicorns! Unicorns!

I really liked @Camelidae's relaxed prompt list for Junicorn. I never manage to get all the way through a prompt list, but I love a more relaxed/laid back prompt!

Of course, I immediately threw the "relaxed" part of that out by deciding to do all three colors in the first prompt all in one go. But come ONNNN!!! I had to! (I didn't have to)

I want to do a lot more with vibrant, saturated color. Actually, I ended up needing to pull this into the curves editor to bring up the lights and darks between getting this from my iPad to laptop. I decided to give it a sunset or dawn type look and give it pink and orange rim lighting.

Also played with how I put this together, I went a little overboard on the highlights on the liver chestnut on the far right, but it was really cool to experiment with utilizing the highlights and darks over top the silhouette of the unicorns. I dunno that I can explain it well.

I've challenged myself with not using pure white and black for years, and have been bringing them back. ^_^;; If I did this a little differently I wouldn't have needed to fix it with curves, but I get a bit too far into my experiments a lot of the time. It what it is! Learning!
