Description So this is the little salt and pepper grey I almost bought a couple of weeks back at auction. That chestnut hind leg <333 it won't grey out. He took grand champion yearling halter at the futurity for the sale too. Not to mention he was a little doll that loved to give kisses!!

Yussss I know image quality sucks.

Wow, I've never seen that kind of mutation on a horse. That's strange and beautiful at the same time.

Hehe isn't it? I just love it on him. I'm thinking it might be some sort of bloodmark/flea-bitten kinda mutation

Eh I think they just wanted him as a ranch horse anyway so that's probably why they did it.

Nice. That's interesting though, isn't it? Don't they normally start dark and then lighten?

MidnightInterlude In reply to thevostrikova [2012-09-24 20:57:26 +0000 UTC]

I hate when that happens. XP

And yeah, I'm glad the entry is done. I had drawn the lines at the beginning of the month and wound up saving them as a lineart as well, so people could use it if they like. But I finally got the drawing finished. I'm psyched. It's one of my best pieces of art, so far.
