Description
'Spider horse, spider horse. Does whatever a spider horse does...' Oh, do excuse me.
Because I like to make life difficult for myself, I thought I'd try and paint Sleipnir. Bit of a tricky one.
Watercolours and acrylic ink on A4 watercolour paper.

More legs means more feet to trample you to death with

Cool ^^ I think there's only so many ways you can put 8 legs on a horse and have it look good so not surprised if it's similar

Well, for what it's worth, yours looks a lot better than the one on the Wikipedia page (where the extra legs look like they're coming out of an entirely different horse just behind the actual Sleipnir).

*goes to look on Wikipedia* haha yeah I see what you mean! Not sure I like the 'conjoined twin' design there. Odin'd need one of those 'wide load' warning signs on the back of his saddle.
