A chestnut in profile at golden hour, mane loose, white blaze catching the last light. Horse portraits sink or swim on the neck and jaw — the big muscle planes — and this design gives each plane its own stepped brown so the coat models itself as you place: shadow under the jaw, mid-tone through the cheek, honey highlights along the crest. The mane is drawn as thick ribbons rather than strands, which is both truer to how manes read at a distance and far kinder to your evenings. Behind the horse, the sunset is three unapologetic flat bands — gold, apricot, dusty rose — the fastest-filling background in this collection and the reason the finished piece glows like a poster. The single visible eye, dark with one highlight, lands the gentleness that makes people keep horse art around for decades. A natural gift for the rider in your life, and a steady mid-size build for anyone who likes their fills warm and broad.
The chart, measured
Every number on this page is read from this design’s actual manufacturing chart — the same
file the 106×106 symbol canvas is printed from — not estimated for marketing.

15 DMC colors, individually bagged |
15 DMC colors over 11,236 drills is a mid-complexity build — enough palette changes to stay interesting, not enough to feel like admin. The workload skews orange: 9 of the 15 colors are orange steps, covering 34% of the canvas, with DMC 783 alone accounting for 21% (2,389 drills). 5 accent colors each cover under 1% of the canvas — small bags that carry the highlights, so keep them sorted.

that processes every Pixelmade order: saliency-weighted DMC selection, nearest-color
mapping, no dithering. What you approve is what gets printed. Each kit is made to order —
printed, picked, and packed when you buy, MOQ 1.
