The Duel [ revised ]

[Gilead]

You know that scene in Jurassic Park where they drop a cow down into the velociraptor pit? They clearly havn't met some of the livestock I've met.

[ edit ] This is the new improved version after some critique.
Somebody once told me that "while you are doing a painting you are married to the painting. But as soon as you finish, you file for divorce." Problem is I can't decide if I'm done with this one or not. I was going for sort of a Fredrick Remington look here in terms of color, lighting and style, and I think I did ok, but I'm still vaguely dissasfied with it.
Let me know what you think.

Here's the original version

That is something I have always wanted to see but never knew that could. It's really fun. The highlights on the bulls right front leg and back side feel a bit shallow and not in tune with the rest of the bulls form. My eyes seem to rest on them- they are just a little awkward. Nevertheless, my money is on the bull.

nice work. only thing is that the colors seem kinda dull, they dont seem to pop out.

I'm bumping this so you see my edited version.
