Description

“I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, "Come and see!" I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest."

_{According to the poll, you guys wanted to see the four horses of the apocalypse. Here's the first one, conquest.
To explain why I designed him like this... Conquest's rider (also called 'Victory' in the Jerusalem Bible translation) carries a bow and a crown (or multiple ones). That's why I decided to make the horse look like a noble, victorious steed, his browband is to resemble the said crown and the golden arrows in the background are to refer to the rider's bow.

Associated with the military conquest, I gave the horse a slightly warhorse-look-alike bridle and since the rider is also said to be the Antichrist, I put the turned crosses on the bridle too.

The ram sheep on the breastcollar is there to resemble the lamb that opened the first seal.}

I really love your horse concept illustrations.
I was just wondering : did you the lineart on paper at first, or did you directly draw it on your computer ?

_{Probably one of the best "Horses of the Apocalypse" illustrations I've seen so far. The shading is so awesome. The concept is great. I really love this work}
