About a month ago, I had to have my lovely, pinto Icelandic horse, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] , put to sleep Sad Sad

And look what Andrew ( Elephas_Maximus) made for me :

It is computer art, and I am going to have it printed and framed !
Thankyou 1000 times, dear Andrew Applause sunny

And then, a couple of day, a parcel arrived from LeeAnn !
She had told me that she had sent a small thing, so I was surprised how heavy the parcel was. scratch
Imagine my reaction when I unpacked this stunning, beautyful model of ...IDA  cheers

For several days I have tried to take pictures that could do justice to this awesome model !
A few of the outdoors photos show the colour, and a few taken indoors show the details, so here are a mixture.
If you imagine the best from each picture, it is ALMOST how wonderful it is  Applause

LeeAnn has changed the beautyful Safari model , so the gait is the right, 4-beat movement with only two hooves touching the ground at a time  cheers

Okay I must confess I have a big lump in my throat now.
Seeing what friends do when a other friend looses a loved animals is so touching.
Such a beautiful tribute of both to Ida, you are so lucky Susanne.

Reminds me of a friend, she made a beautiful drawing when my cat was hit by a car to remember him.

I´m so sorry to hear about Little Ida. My consolations to you.

She´s surely been memorialised well, though. And how nice to see that the model captures the tölt!

All the best.

LeeAnn's custom model is a great tribute to have on your shelf, very nicely done.
It was a pleasure to paint your little horse, glad you like it.

Oh, Susanne. It's so sad to hear about Ida. Sad

But I'm sure she left great memories behind for you. And the painting and model by  Elephas_maximus and LeeAnn are priceless! They are great friends! Very Happy
