Pony portrait finished

I have just finished the pony portrait in pastels:

This pet portrait was drawn on Chanson mi-teintes pastel paper which I was not overly happy with. I have used it before but for some reason found the rough texture a bit annoying this time, although I did actually use the smooth side. It didn't scan well either so the scan looks a bit grainy. I am quite happy with the actual portrait so I suppose it's a bit of a love-hate relationship. As I've bought quite a few sheets of this paper I'd better get used to it! ;o)
