That is stunning and would look great on the Carousel I'm doing.
Have it, the Unicorn and the HW Horse with my Bejeweled for Harry all together on the carousel for a great fantasy look.
I'm doing a few fantasy textures for the carousel now. :D

My thoughts exactly on the carousel !! =) He would look gorgeous bejeweled. I did use your bejeweled mane on the image with the hair and Daio's showoff mane pose. I have tried the bejeweled textures already and they fit fine on the Harry portion the things you would have to worry about are the geografted areas and the textures.

Oh wow! That seahorse is way cool! Can't wait to see that in the store!

Lots of very cool Harry renders here!

Here is a simple black on black study using the HW Friesian and Classic Tack in iray.
Gorgeous!! Love the Iray settings on him. ........... really wish and I know you are way busy we had them for the Gypsy Vanner! I'm doing a quick fix to get the coat textures to render in Iray.

FreyrStrongart is pretty close on having him completed.

I just had a devilishly clever idea... by painting weight maps onto Harry's mane, tail, and forelocks, I can have a dynamic mane, tail, and forelocks which react with other objects in the scene :) :) :)

First test render, just to prove the concept works, even though my weight maps still need some work...

The best part is you can still pose the mane after running the simulation, if you want to make it curly, or something like that.

I forgot to say... the previous test was with the new dForce engine. I've tried using the Poser's Cloth room and VWD before, but this was the first time that I don't need to re-set up the hair each time.

This beautiful background provides a great setting for this Andalusian to dance!

This is one of my very favorite pictures! When I originally created it, I used the fawns that are free from Lyne. But I was tempted to do it again with the mini horse foal I made using the HiveWire Horse.
