Description Striker all grown up! ( Hathien603's Reno [link] X my Annita [link] )

Name: Strike It Rich (aka "Striker")
Gender: Stallion
Breed: Mustang X Appendix QH
Age: 5
Height: 16.1
Discipline: Barrel racing
Color: Silver grullo tobiano
Markings: Star-stripe, tobiano markings, dorsal and zebra striping
Passable Traits: Grullo coloration, silver gene, never produces foals under 15hh
Sire/Dame: By Reno [link] out of Annita [link]
Bloodlines: Reno X Annita
Offspring: None
Personality: True to his father, Striker is a very spirited horse. Thankfully, he hasn't inherited the somewhat dangerous and unpredictable demeanor of his mother. Quite level-headed, this stallion doesn't panic without reasonable cause and is relatively slow to spook. He sports a mustang's intelligence and powerful hooves while maintaining the speed and height of an appendix quarter horse, making him an ideal barrel racer like his dam. He boasts a unique sense of humor regarding those close to him and shows it through various tactics which include bobbing his head incessantly and vocalizing his every objection and agreement. Though outwardly fierce when around mares and other horses, he becomes as gentle as a lamb with foals.


I realize his muzzle is turned, making the perspective a little off. I wish I'd taken a closer look before I inked it! Oh, well. I'm very excited about his bloodlines and future as one of my studs! This pose was also a little tricky, but I'm pleased with it except the muzzle area. I've replaced the photo with the scanned version.

Thankyou! Sure thing, as long as you are in the HArpg. Send me a note with your mare's pics and info; then we'll talk.

It's the horse-art role-playing game. Everyone registers their horses and stable with them, but first you must ask permission. Here's a link to their page, and good luck! [link] Click on "How to Join."

Oh, thanks so much! I use a Micron pen, 02. They come in different thicknesses, and I prefer a thinner type. You can buy them at any art store, like Michael's, for instance. Good luck!

I am SO much in love with this horse.
What I wouldn't give to own something like him in real life.
His design is so beautiful. I want his babies!

Haha, thanks much. I'm really happy with him, too! I wanted a grullo so badly, and ~Hathien603 's Reno made that possible! I gave Striker a little twist, having the silver gene and all.

Thanks! I hope you don't mind that I made him a throwback to thoroughbred height at 16.1. But when have you ever minded taller horses?! I made sure to give him a fair few Reno qualities, of course.
