Competition Name: Fable Stable Opening Competition (Dressage)
Main focus: Single Class
Any Restrictions?: None
Deadline: On-going until each category has at least 3 entries.
All reference images are the courtesy of the wonderful .
- One stable can enter each category only once. However, you can enter as many categories as you'd like, either with the same or a different horse.
- A healthy horse of any kind old enough to be ridden may enter. Unnatural breeds and such are welcome.
- There are no age limits for riders, as long as they are capable.
- Your drawing can vary from a portrait sketch to a full-blown painting with background.
- You are not required to draw the rider.
- The competition is on-going until I notice each category has at least 3 entries. Then the competition will proceed to "3 days until closing" mode, mostly so everyone who has already started working on their entry but hasn't finished it yet still has the opportunity to get in. There are no maximum number of entries in a category, so everyone who posts their entry in the comments before the contest journal is officially closed will be counted. So, if it doesn't say closed on the top of this journal, you still have time to get in.
- The winners, except Judge's Choice, will be decided by random.org
- Please use dressage-appropriate tack.
- This contest will be organized in the 20x60 m arena, which is outdoors. The weather forecast promises a lot of clouds, but no rain. Referencing the backgrounds in the provided images will be quite alright.
- No registering required.
- Draw your horse doing the movement depicted in the reference picture. You can reference heavily or lightly. Then post a link in the comments, mention the category you'll be entering and that's it! You're in!

(Please note that this is the first HARPG competition I have ever organized. If you'd like to offer any critique on how I've handled things and how I could do better next time, I'd really appreciate it. Also, if you have any questions, I'd be more than happy to answer. I'm going on a trip starting 3rd of August though, so I might not be able to answer for a while. Sorry about that. Thank you for your attention, everyone, and happy virtual riding!)
Commission Info
Please note, that...
This info is still under construction.You can be always added to the commission queue, but right now I won't be finishing a commission before the contest prizes I've been working on, for the sake of being fair.This is not my only account, so the commission queue may be longer than you think.

I am an adult and this is how I spend my Fridays
My and my wonderful gf decided to spend our Friday building a whole stable for my Schleich horses out of cardboard. I'm having tons of fun! I'm also mentally 5 years old but oh well haha. Thank goodness I've found someone just as childish as me to love. I hope you guys are having a great Friday as well, whether you're spending it out partying or relaxing at home.
With love,
Fab
Thanking a lovely person (and also some updates)
So, when I logged in today, I noticed something was different. Some lovely person, who wished to stay anonymous, has given me Core membership. Whoever you are, I want you to know that this made my day, and I'm very thankful. I have never had any sort of premium membership on dA before, so this is special for me. I only have a vague idea about what I can do with this membership, but I'm looking forward to discovering the details. Yay~.
In case some of you are wondering what I'm up to and what will be happening next at the stable: I'm currently working on a commission for the lovely AnimalArtKingdom (https://www.deviantart.com/animalartkingdom) . A Comtois foal has also been ordered fr
