Haha, the little shetland foal as Tyrion? That's I think interesting choice. Please, don't think I want to criticise but isn't it somewhat "belittling" for Tyrion?

By the way, did you know that last year artist Rayvin Brewer sculpted very beautiful miniature horse and made a resin edition and called it Tyrion, I think it nicely corresponds to the fiery temperament of that character (he is one my favorite characters from GOT )

I always admire your imagination when it comes to choosing names for your animals, you seem to have never ending stock of ideas. Finding names for so many models, remembering them, and even add some fun fact to every model, that's really impressive!

How come your Schleich fox is made in none? Could you check it better for me, I am sure it is marked with country origin. Your looks very dark, actually.

Your names for these figures are fantastic! It's great to see them all in one place like this and hear the stories behind them. I love the horse you chose for Halibel. She looks just like her namesake. I also love your Przewalski's horse, wolf, and rearing horse models.
