Both are working out really well. Great feeling of distance in the first one. I'da thought the horses would be different colours, and the harness/bridles would be a lot darker. From my childhood memories (I was barought up way out in the country!) working harnesses and bridles were mostly very very dark. Your muddy road textures are always great - but something doesn't seem quite right about the water puddles in the second picture. At the moment they look a bit more like snow. How would it be if you used flat planes with a reflective water texture on for the puddles?
