It’s always fun when I get a new bronze from the foundry for the first time! I’ve just received “Feather” and it’s wonderful to see how he turned out. He’s 9″ long x 8″ high x 3 3/4″ wide including the turned head and flying mane.
As you can see, he’s available in both bay and silver. He was intended to be a Pegasus, but after cutting him apart four times to try various armatures for the wings, I decided any wings I put on him would vibrate too much in shipping and damage the horse. I had one bronze sent to me with no patina on it so I can make wings to fit it and mark where they go on the bronze. Hopefully doing it that way will work!
