The Headless Horseman

Another totally random contribution

Bit late for halloween, but oh well.

Sometimes it amuses dark wizards to make heinous mockeries of their once-mighty foes, and have them serve in their legions. A particular favourite is the headless horseman, which is exactly what it sounds like; a mounted warrior or knight, captured, beheaded and raised from the dead by dark magic to ride again. Their horses are often slain and raised as well, in order to make them more cooperative - but the horse's head is usually left intact, so that at least one pair of eyes is left to guide the dreadful duo.

The top of the stump shouldn't be a straight line from this perspective.

That's pretty good. But you might want to work on the hole where his head should be. It doesn't look right.

Like Sgt. Groovy said, the cut wouldn't be a straight line from the viewer perspective. Something like the attached would be better.
