Horse of the Year "Arab Champion"
Bonnyrigg Gris-Gris
Welsh B x Thoroughbred Mare
Arab Champion Mold
Catalogue HOTY #1004 "The Royal Grey" 1990-94
This model was given to me by Adelaide at Lake District Live in 2015 as a project horse.
Gris has been given new mixed-grey mohair hair, a new off-fore hoof, and all four hooves have been repainted.
Her leg wires are broken, so she's not poseable and can be a little tippy, but I didn't want to perform major surgery on her for such a small issue.
Gris-Gris is an African Voodoo charm, often worn for luck or protection.
In some languages Gris means grey, making it an especially appropriate name.
Bonnyrigg Velveeta
Welsh B x Thoroughbred Mare
Arab Champion Mold
Catalogue HOTY #1001 "The Palomino" 1995-98
For those who are not aficionados of American artificial cheese products, Velveeta is a brand of "cheese" which comes in disturbingly yellow blocks which look exactly like Veeta here...and have about the same shelf-life.
This gummy, plastic-like cheese product tastes of evil on its own, but does make a delicious queso dip.
Veet has been rehaired from nylon to mohair.
