He'll be fun to play with in performance and will be a little different in the halter classes.<BR/><BR/>But as an ASB person myself I agree with Rackon. The first thing I noticed was the course head and something is not right about the neck. I think it might be too short and too thick. Pleasure ASB's are still refined looking.<BR/><BR/>I think if you fix the head like Racon described and fix the neck you'll have a thumbs up from ASB people!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9219172357529507210.post-35420881466104266372008-01-02T12:51:00.000-08:002008-01-02T12:51:00.000-08:00Wonderful. I love the pose and I'm so excited you'...Wonderful. I love the pose and I'm so excited you're doing an ASB. HOORAY! It's so nice to see anatomically correct model horses.<BR/><BR/>However, as an owner, exhibitor and breeder of ASBs in RL (since 1965), I have to say I'm disappointed with the head and eye - as currently scupted this wouldn't be considered a desirable head for the breed. It looks a bit coarse in these photos, especially between jaw and muzzle, and the eye is a little small. The breed type has moved rather far from this sort of looking animal in the last 30 years and refinement is more the norm.<BR/><BR/>I understand the process a sculpture goes through from clay to finished resin and that this is still a work in progress. But I'd personally be happier with a head truer to what I see in show rings day, something closer to breed standard.<BR/><BR/>I look forward to seeing the finished sculpture.Rackonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01864231029869957165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9219172357529507210.post-9877580983318535982008-01-02T11:39:00.000-08:002008-01-02T11:39:00.000-08:00I really enjoy seeing how a concept becomes realit...I really enjoy seeing how a concept becomes reality-- especially how you start with the skeletal anatomy 1st then fill in the muscle mass. The variability in anatomical structure is what makes a breed a breed... and you capture the anatomy so well.

I really, really like the pose and I would be able to tell it's a Saddlebred right of the bat, even if I didn't know that already. And the canter is such a flexible gait, I can already see this resin doing so many things once it's completed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9219172357529507210.post-21939158311005969992007-12-31T14:52:00.000-08:002007-12-31T14:52:00.000-08:00Sarah, your ASB is coming out so lovely.
