My New Babies

So turns out an Animal Artistry spares night two days before my birthday whilst with my model horse enabler is not necessarily a good thing in terms of "not buying too many new ponies"

I have four beautiful new arrivals to introduce you to.

First of all, my newest clinky. I know I shouldn't have, but Laura said I should and she is really really pretty



Named CRS Y Dymestl or Livinia for short (was going to go with Miranda which would obviously have worked better but it didn't seem to suit her)



Next up is the first of my new RubberNedz



Named CRS Laertes Rex (sticking with the greek kings theme and my Rex suffix)



Now I said I wanted a buckskin and a Working Hunter. So it isn't really surprising that I got this girl :p



As she's my first Working Hunter I have no name theme for her. So I went with CRS Murano Summerso (Murano), the name theme for the working hunters will be 'glasswear'



And finally, my birthday present from Brendon. I deliberately asked her not to trim his mane. She does normally do much neater looking horses :p



This is CRS Peregrine Byrant (sticking with the Peregrine prefix) or 'Bacon' for short :p



So there we go! Sooo many ponies :p I may also have one on order that is my Christmas present from Brendon :D

This is the only horse out of my Kris Kringle grab bag that I am keeping, because he is prettiful.



He has been named Naysha Lopez

New Classics

Check out some of the new classics.

First up is Black Beauty



Second is one of the singles, also on the Liam mould

Two New Customs

I am really doing very badly at actually sharing pictures of horses I finish painting! Currently working on the aim of doing one per working day (that's five a week). But I seem to finish one at about 9pm and then just want to sleep :p

Anyway first up is Brother Brother.



This little guy was meant to be bay but clearly had other ideas



So I decided to give him and let him be a sooty buckskin



Next up is Brothers Under The Sun



A black G4 Driver



Both horses are for sale at www.chestnutridge.co.uk

And I do think I currently have a little obsession with painting black horses...
