Here are the pictures I promised. :) Enjoy!
This is the statue horse I did with my teacher's book. However, her colors were slightly different from mine, and she had a much bigger pack of crayons. I have a sixty-two pack, so a pretty nice selection, but she has over one hundred different shades in hers. Thankfully, I only had to improvise once on the mane. I didn't have the color Antique Brass, so I used another, though I can't recall which one I used.
9x12 on Multi Media paper
This next one is the only one I've done without the book--I graphed the picture, and then drew the outline with pencil. I don't usually use graphs because they mar the paper (I have problems with drawing lightly), but I gave in on this, just to make sure I would do it accurately. :)
I used a piece of paper and colored a bit with all my brown tones and a couple yellow ones and labeled them, and laid them on the photo to find which ones matched. So, this is a fairly accurate picture. I hope.
9x12 Sketch paper (it doesn't have any other classification)
All right, and thus concludes my post. :)

@Eagles: Thank you! Yes, I do like it...I don't usually work with color mediums--I've tried painting and failed--but I like the easy feel of crayons, and you can layer easily enough, so if I make a small mistake it doesn't matter too much. :)
@Hyperlinkzer: Thank you very much, Hyperlinkzer. :D
@Leauphaun: Hey, you're pretty good with crayons yourself...remember those eyes you drew and posted on you blog? I loved the green one. ^_^
Thank you, all! You've made my day. :) Sorry I took so long to reply.
