Description
The mare I got for the kaimanawa challenge [link] her name is Area 51 for now until a better name pops up. pretty much one day left and I have writer's block of all things.

NUMBER 51/ Area 51
Gender: Mare
Age: 2 years
Height: 14.3 hh
Colour: Bay Tovero
Genotype: Ee / AA / TT / nO
Eyes: Brown
One Trait or Quirk: The good news is, this little lady has a nerve of steel! She’s been through everything, and has yet to spook at anything, which we all find quite impressive! The bad news is: she seems to be incredibly lazy.

~~Previously:
The Meeting- [link]

~~~~The Mishap- 2 of 4 required pictures+story~~~~

(will fill in/flesh out soon. plot summary so far is ... after a few days working with her in her stall/paddock jeff takes her out for the first time to work in the round pen/work on leading in and to different places. the second she sets foot out side she books it towards the pastures and begins whineying. gold diamond hears and sees her and starts going nuts in the pasture, racing back and forth along the fence line, causing all the other mares to go nuts. jeff tries to catch her but she manages to stay just out of reach; switching from trotting to walking and walking to trotting. She may pin her ears at him too and move as if to bite or kick when he approaches as well not sure if i want that to happen/they passed that stage of disrespect and distrust. other barn hands may come in and help round her up while jeff feels incompetent and embarrassed.)

Next:
The "backing"
The Training

goodness gracious her pattern/design was tough to replicate. I really enjoyed drawing this though. I used a reference from my own stock of pictures on my computer for help with the body pose and shading.
