Achilles and Patroclus

A couple of weeks ago I completed this Maggie Bennett Blitzen resin:

He was named Achilles because apparently every horse must have a Greek name at the moment

But then I felt kinda sad because I didn't like the idea of Achilles being all alone without Patroclus.

So it wasn't long before the next micro I was working on was nicknamed Patroclus. And not too long after that that the name stuck.

He is a Jessie pewter micro by Maggie Bennet (and yes I know not a stallion but we will ignore this).

Say hello to Patroclus:

They actually look really cute together! They now live together on the shelf, next to Persephone (I told you the Greek thing was getting out of hand)

So they can spend eternity together :)

  1. Oh I love the matched name thing, Achilles is my favourite of the models (it's that spot patterning, really nicely done!) but it's great to have the matching pair. I've got quite a few in my herd who are paired off couples, inseperable best buddies, or adoptive families - it messes up congas sometimes when they insist on standing together on the shelves, heh
