Finally my entry for silverglass19's contest [link]

This seemed like a really fun contest so I wanted to enter but I am pressed for time with my job right now so I used line art for my stallion design. It fits him perfectly though so here goes

Kanoro (means sword sharpener)
Age: 56
Breed: Bacabello x Mustang
Color: Very smutty palomino
Signed: Left shoulder
Markings: dark end of Blush
Magical Ability: None
Personality/ How they met: Kanoro is not a dumb blond for one, he is quick and clever, but self concious at times of having pink markings. He loves life but has yet to find a mate of his own even though many other bacabellos he knows have already found their mates. This leads him to occasionally think something is wrong with him. He is very outgoing but also protective and now a worry-wort of a father because of his young daughter.

He met Akhalaia when his younger sister was wounded in a rockslide. Akhalaia chanced upon them and was able to heal his sister. Kanoro was eternally grateful but that was not the last that he saw of the beautiful bay mare. Her serious take on life fascinated him and he felt drawn to her in a way he had never felt before. He could see she was shy but he convinced her to join his sister and himself for several days. Though withdrawn at first Akhalaia enjoyed the outgoing and loving natures of Kanoro and his sister and she stayed with them for sometime feeling safe and secure. When his sister fully recovered she left to rejoin her mate. Kanoro tentatively confessed his true feelings to Akahalaia, he loved everything about her and the bond he felt with her was greater than he had felt with any other. He was able to open her up and show her the fun side of life and she gave him some of her wisdom and helped him stay grounded. "Akhalaia rested her head against his shoulder and sighed, she was overcome with emotions, as her dream to have a family became a reality. "

Itotia
Gender: Filly
Color: very dark bay, will be darker when she is older with subtle dappling and lighter areas of bay.
Markings: Pale cobalt markings
Signed: Tattoo will appear on her chest
Magical ability: Air ability - can control small whirlwhinds
Personality: Although Itotia is still young she is very adventurous and loyal to those around her. When she was born she was able to stand quite quickly and demonstrated a lovely movement as she grew older which gained her the name “Itotia” which means dance. She loves when the wind shapes itself around her and she can dance to its flow.

Here are bigger files of them so that they are easier to see
