for the horse asks: appaloosa?
Appaloosa - What's your favorite horse color(s)?
I don’t really have one but I LOVE when horses and ponies are what they’re supposed to be!
I’m also a huge fan of the primitive markings, and general Lascaux cave horse appearance.
So like I wouldn’t say flaxen chestnut is my favorite AT ALL, but the Haflinger!! . yes you are a cobby little horse with a big butt that needs to be a flaxen chestnut!! and everyone understands this. Perfect animal. No need to track changes. Also I do love when a horse has a bit of texture in their mane and tail, so respect to Haflingers for being the rare wavy-haired horsie. I don’t even like blondes so you see what I mean here about it just being the pure synergy of intention and form and style, the Haflinger just is perfectly complete.
Tumblr media
And then a brunblakk fjord horse. The mealy muzzle. The dorsal stripe. Black ear tips. Someone from 20,000 years ago is grasping my hand across space and time and we are crying together about how perfect a thick little horsie can get. Granted the fjords always have the weirdest haircuts in the world, but you can see exactly why. This horse is so perfectly what it’s supposed to be that you can’t resist scrungling it a little bit. Also another animal that IS its name like: all Norwegian Fjords LOOK like the breed name is Norwegian Fjord, and they ARE all named things like Freya. As they should be. This is an animal that is exactly what it should be.
You know how horse people compliment each other’s horses by saying they have a kind eye? It’s hard not to have a Kind Eye if you are a brunblakk Norwegian Fjord.
Tumblr media
And of course, my baby, my darling, my moorland mousie, the feral shaggy brown/bay with mealy markings that is the Exmoor Pony. You look at this tubby beastie and you say YES. YES YOU ARE BORN TO BE A LITTLE BEASTIE ENCOUNTERED SUDDENLY ON A MISTY MOOR . The sculpting of the contour colours! Some sculpture artist would spend hours with an airbrush trying to do that! and they just wake up in the morning , eyeliner: on, eyeshadow: on, lipstick: on, cheeks: contoured, muzzle: mealy, dapples subtle, ready to go. Can’t even see their eyes half the time, but underneath 25 pounds of luscious pelted mane they’re wearing natural mascara. And for what? Living full time on rocks in the rain, baby!! This is a cave painting horse and it always will be!
Tumblr media
The reverse of that of course is horses who Shouldn’t Be That Color. For example I am a little bit upset by this chestnut Shire, who isn’t a flaxen chestnut and probably should be. What are you doing baby? You need some leg markings sweetheart. Can we just dye your mane and tail black maybe, you have bay energy. Ughhhhh I’m trying not to be prescriptive. Ughhhh all horses are beautiful and beauty standards are fake but ———— - sweet child we HAVE to style you somehow!!!! You are a Shire!!!!! WHAT IS THIS??
Tumblr media
And I love - LOVE! - a grulla/grullo. Obvious reasons: I like primitive markings, and I have the aesthetic taste of a small child. Who doesn’t secretly love a deviantart sparklehorse?
but I will be the first to admit that it is a razor’s edge between a really lovely grulla horse who reaches back to touch our shared history and knowledge of ourselves, an unbroken thread of beauty that should be painted in a cave under an ancient mountain, like a jewel of the earth: and a necromantic vessel that was bred to encourage possession by evil ghosts, to be harvested regularly and sold at retail prices by some midwestern white woman as part of some tortuous work-from-home scheme. And I do understand this. I know this about myself and about grullas. Like, this one is a horse that probably shouldn’t - we probably shouldn’t have done this. You know?
Tumblr media
Do not ask about cremellos.

What really gets me about breyers fjord mare/sport pony mold is that since they released Astrid as grå for the premier collection they can't exactly do a regular run with grå again now that zoobie's already taken the brunblakk spot.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But that was kind of stupid because the only other fjord model breyer's released also only came in grå and brunblakk, so now they've pushed themselves into a corner where they have to either make one of the other 5 fjord colors (does breyer even know they exist atp.) or instead just push endless decorator/variant runs on her. And clearly they've decided what route they want to take!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's just crazy because it's like. If breyer knows it's going to be allergic to making any fjord besides the two most common colors then why didn't it just make Astrid's premier a fun colored sport pony instead. Or like ulsblakk. And then pushed grå to regular release instead... Idk. I just want a rødblakk really ba d please breyer

Disney Horses
Disney has never tried doing a franchise focused on their equine characters, and I am disappointed. So here is a partial compilation of Disney horses--namely the ones I think would be the most marketable--just in case Disney should ever change their mind on that point and wants a reference guide to which horses they should include in the line.
Major (Cinderella, 1950)
Tumblr media
Major is a gray stallion who is temporarily transformed into a coachman for Cinderella's night at the ball.
Samson (Sleeping Beauty, 1959)
Tumblr media
Samson is a gray stallion belonging to Prince Phillip. He is shown to be fast and fearless, and he hates distractions and detours.
Captain (101 Dalmatians, 1961)
Tumblr media
Captain is a gray draft stallion who lives in the English countryside. He is instrumental in aiding in the rescue of Pongo and Perdita's puppies, and helps provide them with shelter and protection during their trek back to London.
Frou Frou (Aristocats, 1970)
Tumblr media
Frou Frou is a flaxen chestnut light draft mare belonging to Madame Adelaide Bonfamille of Paris, France. She is a close friend of Duchess and her kittens. She is the only mare to be prominently featured in a Disney animated feature film with a specific storyline. Fantasia (1940) features a pegasus mare in one of its sequences (the mother of Peter Pegasus).
Philippe (Beauty and the Beast, 1991)
Tumblr media
Philippe is a flaxen chestnut Belgian draft stallion who belongs to Maurice and Belle. He is very cautious and skittish, but bravely returns with Belle to the Beast's castle to find her father.
Achilles (The Hunchback of Notre Dame, 1996)
Tumblr media
Achilles is a gray warhorse who belongs to Captain Phoebus. He is trained to respond to commands the same way a dog would, and even knows how to sit and heel. He appears to get along with Frollo's Friesian stallion Snowball, despite their owners being on opposites sides.
Pegasus (Hercules, 1997)
Tumblr media
Pegasus is a pegasus stallion belonging to Hercules. He is white with a blue mane and tail. Pegasus isn't the most intelligent horse, but he's very loyal and courageous.
Khan (Mulan, 1998)
Tumblr media
Khan is Mulan's faithful black stallion. He carries her into battle against the Huns.
Bullseye (Toy Story 2, 1999)
Tumblr media
Bullseye is a chestnut stallion who serves as Woody's loyal steed in the children's show that spawned the toy line Woody is part of. In the Toy Story films, Bullseye is Jessie's closest friend and ally.
Buck (Home on the Range, 2004)
Tumblr media
Buck is a bay stallion belonging to Sheriff Brown. He is incredibly egotistical and admires the bounty hunter Rico until he learns Rico is working for the notorious Alameda Slim.
Maximus (Tangled, 2010)
Tumblr media
Maximus is a light silver Andalusian stallion who loyally serves the Captain of the Guard, acting as both his mount and his right hand man. He is intelligent, brave and fiercely patriotic. He dedicates his life to protecting Princess Rapunzel on all her adventures.
Angus (Brave, 2012)
Tumblr media
Angus is a black Shire stallion who serves as Merida's mount and best friend. He has good judgment and hates having to carry Merida into danger, but will do so if the cause is just.
Sitron (Frozen, 2013)
Tumblr media
Sitron is a brunblakk (brown dun) fjord stallion who belongs to Prince Hans of the Southern Isles. Despite his owner's sinister nature, Sitron is a polite, friendly horse with fast reflexes and an instinct to protect.
Fidella (Tangled the Series, 2017)
Tumblr media
Fidella is a bay draft mare who belongs to Cassandra. She is fast, strong and brave, and Maximus develops a crush on her. Fidella does not come from a feature film, but this list desperately needed another mare.
The Nokk (Frozen II, 2019)
Tumblr media
The Nokk is a Scandinavian water spirit tamed by Elsa. It serves as her mount. While it is Elsa's friend and allows her to ride it, it is still very wild and will drown trespassers on the Dark Sea.

One of my favorite games is an online point and click game where you breed and train horses. There’s a lot of stuff you can do to your horses. Also there are horses with magical powers who give you gameplay bonuses.

Gaming rant:
Rockstar has given us some great new breeds lately, and I’m still hoping they’ll add some more highly requested breeds, mainly;
Quarter horses: shorter than a Standarbred, but not as short as the small breeds( Nokota, Criollo, Arabian, Mustang). 4 color options. Blue roan, Palomino, Cremello, Sorrel, and black maybe?
Friesians: about the height of the Fox Trotter/Standarbred in game 15-16hh(not hulkingly tall like the game’s terribly massive Thoroughbred(they’re easily as tall as the game’s Shire and I do not understand why). 4 color options. Black, Black with white aging on the forehead(it’s beautiful. Fight me), light grey/white(it exists), Tobiano, Dapple bay. Not sure how they would model in the thick LOONNG mane, and THICK tail. 🤔
Clydesdales: Big like the Shire, slightly thicker. 4 color options. Classic Bay, Dapple Grey, Chestnut Sobiano, Black. Added bob tail customization? 🤔
Fjords: same height as Criollo/Nokota. 4 color options said exactly like this( please). Kvit(white or cremello), Brunblakk(common brown dun), Rødblakk( red/chestnut dun), Grä( grey). Gotta have that big Mohawk mane and fluffy forelock. 🙌🏻♥️
Rocky Mountain horses: Tennessee walker In- game height- 14-15hh. 4 color options. Silver dapple/flaxen mane/tail, perlino, sorrel, chocolate roan.
Gypsy Vanners: about the height of the Breton, though, not as stocky. 4 color options. Tobiano, Smokey Black, Grey, Palomino.
BUT, I think what I want more is the option to give the mane styles pictured above to every breed we already have, cause they are awesome, and we need them as a customizable option, as well as more colors..like actual white, not just grey. Right? Yes? Good!
