My Other Harry Potter drawings I drew that Thestral with a ballpoint pen (and darkened a bit with photoshop). But 1st, I've done the main horses lines with a pencil.
The little furry creature is from one of the paintings called The Nightmare, by Johann Heinrich Füssli ( ==> [link] ).
It is a demon, who sits on women chests while they're sleeping, nearly suffocating them.
The world "nightmare" is composed by "night" and "mare". A mare is that little demon, but also (it's a coincidence) a female horse.
In HP6, a Thestral is a horse that only persons who've seen death can see them. They're flesh-eating. ^_____^
My first intention was to draw a thestral, but then I added the Mare, but just as a wink to the painting. My drawing means nothing.
thestral belongs to JK Rowling.

When I read the book I really though in Nightmares when I read the description of the Thestrals. Even the image, without the wings, remember me the Magic: The Gathering card 'Nightmare' too.
I'm out of the point, I think... Well, about the pic, I like it. The sinister halo that has the whole picture is amazing and the detail is very cool. I like specially the wings and the complete black and white desing. Very cool.
Anyway, here is a link about one of my favorite pictures of a Nightmare:
