the reference picture is made and all rights as far as I know owned by Fang Lan (Dark Templar). I was inspired by it (but decided to leave out the black outer lines, save for a few exceptions those tend to suck. badly.) and decided I’ll model the steed in the picture that is inside the file in the link. anyway, I’m hoping to create a whole game in this style, I’ve been working with the game engine for uhh… who knows how long, probably since when it was brand new or something o.O (and dont know how to write a single line of code, geez, oh and I adore p00f!) I used to be called uh… Hirpo. and before that Skyshark. and I’m back.
oh and I’m proud of how I managed to add a “long range anti-mipmap sneakyness detail adder deluxe”, just press F2 to enable it, and F1 to disable it to add a little detail to the model, more visible from further away, it enhances mostly the gold lining but also the steed’s hollow eyes <3
but anyway, enough with the babble, here’s the file, use 2.42+, I used 2.43 RC1:

controls:
F1 - Disable distance texture enhancer HYPER 1000 mix deluxe plus
F2 - Enable distance texture enhancer HYP- well yeah…
W and S - zoom in and out
A and D - rotate model
added: screenies 
christ those look horrible as stills… well the gold lining shines nicely, and the gleam on the thing’s head is okay too, its not meant to be looked at from that close I guess, although it looks better in motion. 193 polygons.
feel free to use the steed if you want, I know I’m not going to, seeing how its not my design or anything. you probably shouldnt use it in anything commercial though, its a death knight from the warcraft universe, and an artistic interpretation of that made by Fang Lan, and I used the picture without permission, well not directly as in… well I did add it but just to show what I got the idea from and all. all textures and modelling and poor animating done by me, if you use the steed credit me and Fang Lan… I think. o.o
… can you tell I’m tired…? I’m tired. rambling. need coffee… its 8 pm here and I slept like 3-4 hours last night >_<
