Snowfell - DIS foundation stallion

I did *gulps* a proper digital background for the first time in my life I'm soo haaappy and even though horsie here fought me every step of the way, I'm VERY pleased with how he turned out.

(He's standing on and outcropping in case anyone wondered, with his wings blowing a newly fallen powder snow from the top covering. The cliffs in the background aren't connected directly to the outcropping, there's a deep valley between them, going down hundereds of feet below what is shown here.)

------------------------------------------------
As we’d hoped, the heavy winter did bring some new arrivals to the area. A severe storm a few days ago, blew in creatures caught in it from far and wide who’d been unlucky enough to find shelter in time.
Among them was one who seemed to immediately make himself at home. The new stallion seems to prefer the higher mountains that like further away from our valley, but he’s been seen in an increasing frequency to soar over those cliffs and lower mountains in which Darklight Valley is located. Perhaps there is something here that attracts him…
Since the taller mountains in the range are snow covered even in the height of summer, we hope that he will stay in the general area. In the meantime we’ve named him after the mountain he seems to favour the most.
