OhHi
I'm kinda alive
I can't honestly even remember the last time I posted something with my HARPG babies . And I missed them SO FRIKIN MUCH ijustcant, so this happened c:
We were having some beautiful super warm autumn days here in Switzerland a couple of weeks ago, so I was inspired by that
One more thing in CEFC that happened recently now is that there's a new bit-less, spur-less and whip-less policy established for all of the members of CEFC, like that there's less cruelty and technical impact on the horsies. I've been thinking a lot about it recently and I'm really concerned about this topic and there are a lot of factors that influenced me, so now there's gonna be much more natural horsemanship practices in CEFC, which I think is not a bad thing at all c:
Aaaand btw, there's a little extra coming up soon, so keep an eye on that <3

Yay natural horsemanship! my stables been like that for a while, ever since I watched , 'the path of the horse' documentary. I almost stopped having a stable altogether, but then I thought about the fact that my pixel horses don't actually exist and I can't hurt them lol

Yep, that's it, I absolutely feel you, being vegan for 2,5 years made me rethink so much things, particularly in the equestrian world, and now I'm really hesitating to stop the HARPG, but I'm very attached to my characters and stories and horses, so for now I decided to keep it like this in natural horsemanship state c:

Um, same??? I'm vegan too! Lol that's exactly what happened to me. I also had a stage where my stable was a place where they only did ground tricks, like telling the horse to sit, roll over, lift it's leg, kind of like dog obedience lol.
But I missed interactions with other harpgers so much, I wouldn't do this in real life but for my pixel ponies I just have no bits or anything that could hurt them, and then pretend in this universe they don't begin to have back pains within 15 mins, or other reasons I could list that made me feel bad ;-;

OMGG VEGAN POWAH <3
Yeah exactly, same for me, we have such a great community here and it would be a shame to just leave it like that ;-;
Me too, at least I'm not promoting harsh bits and spurs and whips and whatever violent stuff that is used to control and exploit horses. We're already doing great steps in promoting harm-free horsemanship, so already it's than nothing c:

This is gorgeous!! Your method for lighting is always so eye-catching. Here it makes me miss the summertime, haha.
And I would agree, I don't think that's a bad decision at all! I've been looking into the topic myself and recently switched my irl mare to a side-pull. It's super cool to see you bring it to HARPG!

That's super cool! I've been thinking about removing the bits as well.. Sure it's a cyber stable with cyber horses, but it's more about the principle really.

Thanks so much and yes, I totally agree! It's all about how and what idea you pass through the pictures you create. That's so great to see that there are other peeps as well who think like that <3
