Title: Making a Horse (latest update: Tue, Jun 23, 2015 at 8:10 pm EST)

(Have horse, will travel.  ;))

So far, I have a base model with head, tail, mane, ears, eyes and eyelids separate from each other. (Showing here:)
(http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r559/NecroBite/blender-app%202015-06-23%2014-23-47-895.jpg)
Poly count of just 4206 tris. Also finished the inside of the mouth (teeth and gums), though I didn't make a roof or the mouth or anything. Do that in a bit.
I think I'm close enough to rigging to ask... for assistance. :x
I know how to rig, just need help with the specifics of IT.

EDIT: On the other hand, I have no idea what I'm doing besides the modeling and rigging. Any assistance would be helpful. .u.;;

EDIT1: I plan to provide this free for all servers, so long as I'm credited.
Also, plans: Variants (thoroughbred and draft), tufts (elbows, feathering, under jaw and fluffy ankles (for unicorns)), sharp canine like teeth (already almost done with those), tusks, saber teeth (just edit the canine teeth?).
The current version is already sort of a draft with the heavy face and wide body look, so that's half done, I guess.

EDIT 2:
(http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r559/NecroBite/thin%20horse%20variant.png)(http://i1171.photobucket.com/albums/r559/NecroBite/draft%20horse%20variant%202.png) Second one's really just a better look at the original.  Beefed up the draft a bit and shortened the legs also. The difference between the two is now more striking.
Poly count now totals 4,238.

EDIT 3: Made the thoroughbred horse's head thinner and longer. Bridge is less convex, eyes are slightly higher and nostrils/mouth slightly bigger also.

EDIT 4: Took some advice and brought the booties up a little higher.

(at iPledgeTSM)
I sculpted the original horse in Sculptris, then exported all the parts separately into Blender, where I created a new, lower poly mesh around it (using the original for reference/as a base). I could've just used decimate, I guess, but it actually looks better this way, even if it was more work.
The original model was 32,000 or so triangles, for reference.
I know you didn't ask for all that info, but... Eh. Maybe it'll be useful to you. Or to someone else, I guess.

Also, thanks x2.

Thanks.
(No longer replying just to say thanks, but I'll think it in your direction if you say something positive about the horse.)
