| It's Conga Time! Today, we're looking at my National Show Horse conga. Sculpted by Sommer Prosser, she's one of my personal favorite molds and has been since I was a child. |
 |
| I love the motion and flow of the sculpture - she's so beautifully done, and I find her to be a harmonious blend of art and functional horse. Like Sham and Lady Phase, I typically try to add to this conga at BreyerFest. |
 |
| My first horse on the mold was the 2008 Color Crazy Mare and Foal Set (the variation with white markings). She and Naranda sparked my love for the mold, and I still have them both today! |
 |
| Gwendolyn was one of my childhood grails - I didn't get her as a child, but I did eventually pick her up as an adult. |
 |
| Like Thunder was my first foray into low runs! I got him in 2015 or 2016 I think? My timeline is a little fuzzy but I know I was in college. |
 |
| Charisma is another like Gwendolyn I coveted for a while. According to Facebook photos, it looks like I picked her up during BreyerFest 2022. Something about this specific shade of palomino and her pinto pattern is very pleasing to my eye! |
 |
| This is the 2014 Warehouse Find web special! You can tell the difference between her and the original Madison Avenue by the VIN. The Warehouse Find will have one, while the original Madison Avenue was retired before it was required. |
 |
| The Regular Runs (L-R): Snow Princess, Naranda, Color Crazy (white markings) |
 |
| BreyerFest Models (L-R): Rejoice, Gwendolyn, All Glory, Namaste |
 |
| Special Runs (L-R): Like Thunder, Warehouse Find, Charisma, Champagne Toast |
I like to mix molds- and she looks really good next to my Huckleberry Bey. I appreciate the correct trot when the tail is the third point of balance.
ReplyDeleteThe NSH is such a graceful and lovely model. I have Pandora and the RR bay pinto. Now I want a Like Thunder since seeing your lovely copy.
