Steed Acquisition

[Image ID:

Four sequential digital paintings of Sir Gawain acquiring Gringolet the horse

The first is of Gawain, an Indian man with heterochromia in red and white checkered hose and sleeves with a green tunic and holly-embroidered hood, sat astride Gringolet, a dapple grey Highland Pony with red tack. He bears a red kite shield with a gold pentacle, a motif also seen in the tack. The text reads, in an old English font, Sir Gawain’s FAILSAFE GUIDE to acquiring a NOBLE STEED.

The second is a silhouette of an armoured man on horseback chasing down Gawain on foot against a tumultuous sky. Gawain’s arms are cartoonishly placed. The text reads: Step One: Stop Running.

The third is a red-washed scene of Gawain splitting the other knight’s helmet open with a sword, with comically exaggerated motion like an old cartoon hammer strike. The text reads: Step Two: Unspeakable Violence. The text appears spattered with blood.

The fourth is a bust of Gawain kissing Gringolet on the cheek, hand affectionately wrapped around the horse’s nose. They are surrounded by the outline of a heart and the text reads Step Three: Profit.

With that was Gringalet ready

I may or may not have put this prompt in as an excuse to draw Gringolet. I regret nothing

Gringolet has died at least once.

GRINGOLET THEFT

nothing in the entire history of arthurian literature is as correct and appropriate as Gawain having acquired Gringolet by theft mid-battle:

Then they crossed the ford and ran after them for quite a long time. King Clarion, who was sitting on Gringolet, went out ahead all the others more than an arrow-shot. And Sir Gawainet was behind his companions, holding his bloody sword, when the Saxon, who was striving hard to catch up with him, yelled out, "You worthless dog, surrender now, for all of you are dead!" And Sir Gawainet looked about and saw the horse hugging the ground and bursting to go, and he began very much to yearn for him in his heart, and he said that if he had such a horse, he would not give him away for the best city that King Arthur had. Then he began to slow his pace and run at an easy gallop. King Clarion was still giving him chase and would not let him get away. And when Sir Gawainet saw how close he was to him, he turned his shield against him. King Clarion struck him so hard that his lance flew to bits, and Sir Gawainet hit him so hard on his helmet that he split it down to his iron coif and cut to the bone; he dazed him so badly that he flew over his saddlebow onto the ground, and he hit so hard that he fainted away from the agony he felt. And Sir Gawainet took Gringolet by the bridge and led him toward a stand of trees almost half a league away.

Gawain is so happy to see his horse again that he feels better from his battle wounds and his horse is so happy it friend-bites him.

This is adorable.

I was drawing a small silly drawing for my birthday and... I'm afraid I ACCIDENTALLY (and by that I mean I was drawing a horse and than realized it's GAWAIN'S HORSE SO OBVIOUSLY IT SHOULD BE GRINGOLET) made Gringolet look like THIS... on the one hand I like it, but on the other hand I'm not sure how this appearance suits Gringolet. Any thoughts??? Do we have any canon description of him??? Does this look normal??? Cause I don't know
