Flowery Asfaloth
Added 2020-05-15 16:01:52 +0000 UTCIt's funny how Camargue-y he looks with that yellow tint! I really only did it to differentiate him from the flowers. :P
Okay, and he *is* based on a Camargue horse I photographed at a reenactment show. But normally my horses don't show it that much!

I'm not sure - I'm still sitting on so many of the "Unicorn" t-shirts I made two years ago. I think it's too in-your-face as a shirt, but I might be wrong.

2020-05-15 19:56:06 +0000 UTCTrue, he does look like a Camargue horse (great horses btw! So brave and kind and steadfast), and it's perfect for Asfaloth - Although, maybe a Camargue horse would be too short (those horses are quite small) for our tall Glorfindel? but who cares? he looks perfect here! :p

2020-05-15 16:59:51 +0000 UTCHe’s beautiful! Camargue as elf horses models seems fitting, somehow. Rochallor would have to be somewhat sturdy!

2020-05-15 16:57:35 +0000 UTCI love them - they're on the stocky side but have really beautiful faces. I have folders and folders full of reference of Camargue horses. They're a very old race, and are often used by Roman reenactors - and those are great to photograph as they don't cover so much of their beasties! I have a lot of mediaeval jousting photos, too, but those horses are really all covered up in cloth and there isn't much to see...

2020-05-15 16:43:29 +0000 UTCSo beautiful! As one totally ignorant in the topic I had to google what Camargue horses are... Filled that knowledge gap now. 😂 They look so nice, I can totally understand the reference!
