wow, lots of detail there on those hooves... good job pony user added image

. Maybe add some more fur around his ankle, for a smoother transition? It just seems a bit to cut off... then again i dont spend a lot of time around horses either user added image

OMG PONY this is coming along amazing!!! I wish i could crit this but i can't. Only request i have is that you turn up the lights a little bit so we can see the nose and eyes. They appear solid black from my point of view. Maybe its my monitor.......

adjusted my gfx card settings and the nose/mouth still looks pretty black, just make it a little brighter then black so we can see the details.

Tryed reworking the tail some, and messing around with some PFX for some fethering around the hoofs.

Chipper, LSphinx. Thanks !!! don't worry the spots will be back.

I'v reworked the base texture on the body. hope its better. its a subtle change but much needed.. hopefully I will not have to have spots just to brake it up some.. don't get me wrong I like the spots..

That looks amazing Pony... its progressed amazingly well in your last couple posts...i watch this thread in eager anticipation.
Can i make a smallish suggestion on the bionic leg?...i thought it might look more convincing if there was a bit more mechanics to it like some small cables or hydraulic rams, i dont mean bulky as it looks nice and sleek as it is and i think that works great but just a couple more components would give it the edge ...but oh yes...great stuff.
