The requested colour was similar to one I did a few years back, a rose grey with tetrach spots. I found a decent reference picture that was slightly different.
The model provided is the G3 Stablemate Cantering Warmblood.
I was really apprehensive before starting. Sometimes I just look at a reference picture and think "how am I going to create that".
But once she had a few layers of pastelling it was clear she was actually working out quite well.
I'm really happy with her colour. Reference horse had two heavy white stockings on the back legs but I chose not to add those as I don't think it would have enhanced the colour at all.
Her new owner seems happy, which is all that matters, but for once I think I'm sort of happy as well. I quite like this girl!
