Description

...except we're really cowboys and indians.

OKAY so Doc has decided that she really...really likes cowboys. Like, she thinks that they're pretty much the sexiest ever. So Doc had to make one.

I was sitting there enjoying the fire, daydreaming when I saw this guy in my head - just a cowboy with silver/white hair, darker facial hair, and yellow eyes. Not very original but I dunno, I'm a strong believer that characters don't really need to look all that special in order to be special - I mean obviously you can't copy a character from someone else but whatever. So I drew him, and then I decided he needed a horse, so voila, two new cowboy-era characters that are gonna collect dust in my gallery! ;D

I haven't decided their names yet, but basically I have this so far: the cowboy is a rough and tumble typical Westerner, with nerves of steel and all that shit. I'm thinkin he has something to do with the railroad because that's awesome stuff right there. He gets along with other people as long as they leave him alone, but he reaaallly dislikes Native Americans, as most cowboys did back in their day. One day during a particularly nasty raid, the cowboy and his gang (or without his gang) took out an entire Native war party, and reaped the spoils by taking their weapons, jewelry, and horses...this guy decided that the leader's paint mare would be his, and ever since the two have fought for supremacy in their travels across the wild west (they do get along most of the time, surprisingly, even though they're polar opposites, kind of like a wand-chooses-the-wizard thing). Most of the time it's just Nameless Cowboy trying to act all macho and mysterious only to have his attempts ruined by Nameless Horse. 

I love them enough for now though <33
