Story:

While preparing for the hunt, the Lord goes to the Blacksmith's Forge and gets his horse's shoes shod. ​

​

Spec:

They had to be able to have the Lord puppet sit on top and stay upright

To be able to attach a horseshoe to one of the hooves

To link with the rest of the Lord's entourage. 

​

Materials:

• Plasterzote

• Wood

• PVC piping

• Sting

• Cardboard

• Worbla

• Painted render- Acrylic, Gouache and PVA

​

As the Lord is toy-like, I wanted the horse to resemble a rocking/carousel horse. I wanted the horse to be regal and have a similar aesthetic to horse images of the medieval age.
