Pretty. Perhaps we could get a look at some other angles?

One small suggestion: perhaps you should paint over the flecks of blue that have gotten on to parts of the sand? It looks unnatural, since of course water does not behave this way.

Da Southern New Hampshire!

The over all model looks awesome, especially the horse's eyes. And by over all, I mean its great for table top, something you could easily put on the table without feeling bad.
If you want to go beyond table top (the base is already pretty good, though like cromis said touch up the blue), paint (more) highlights and small detail.

For example, the hooves, and the hair covering the hooves. I can see where the brown is dry brushed over the black on the hoof from the hair. Fix that. Give it a frost tipped look or something where it ends. Give the green a greater depth of green-ness. Add yellow with bits of white to create the brighter shade of green, and subsequently add red and black to the green to make it dark (red is its complimentary color, giving it a more muted look when combined).

Dirty up the yellow and the skeleton for a more realistic and polished effect.

I applaud your color scheme, its rather easy going and not too "everywhere at once" (like the old gw chaos termi paint schemes... ugh, you could find the rainbow and the pot of gold in those models).

If at first you don't succeed, you fail.
