I decided to work on some tack AND realism color and lines. I'm not as good as I thought I was and it didn't turn out as I wanted it to :/ So much for practice! I think CWHR really makes me improve my artistic skill. And CWHR really did help me A LOT on my horse knowledge. And I think SerenWish and ImmyWimmy1 are the main reason that I know all of this. I thank you guys ever so much <3 I don't know what I'd do without you guys! <33
As you see, the title says 'Skewbald Chestnut'. Skewbald is not a marking I believe. And this horse may not look Chestnut to you. Oh believe me, it is. Chestnuts can range from verities of different shades. This one just happens to be a very dark Chestnut. And lighting can also effect the looks of the Chestnuts color. (:
As for the tack, note that it IS Western tack. And this horse's tack does not have to be matching or exact. I have a pony that I ride with a Western saddle and a English Bridle with a lead used as reins. Yes, it is weird for him to use....But it is really the only thing that fits him since all the other horses in the barn are much bigger then him. Ranging from a Arabian, 15.1 (I think) hands Quarter Horse, Friesians, and a Gypsy. None of their tack exactly fits him...

Owner: {h o r s e}
Show Name: Through the Wardrobe
Barn Name: Narnia
Gender: Mare
Height: 14.2hh
Age: 4
Breed: Australian Stock Horse
Theme Song:Boom Clap - Charli XCX
Personality: I can see you, but cannot hear you.
Being a very young mare, Narnia can be quite hard to control. She has speed, power and is incredibly 'cowy', but she is hard to hold back. She's only young, but she is still learning. It's hard to get her attention, because she is often fixated on other things.
I have the need for speed.
Narnia is incredibly fast. Like, very fast. She's quite headstrong, so she needs an assertive rider. She is still a blank canvas, ready to be painted with a beautiful picture.
History: Narnia was born on what they call a station in Australia. Station horses are the best campdrafting horses around, and are very highly valued for their incredible speed, agility and talents. She is currently being trained in campdrafting. Due to her impeccable blood lines, Narnia will never be sold.
Color: Chestnut
Markings: Medium Tovero
Tack: Western Saddle and Bridle
Why Does This Mare Have Tack On?: Traditionally, campdrafting is done in a stock saddle, but Narnia uses a western bridle and saddle. Many equestrian events originating in Australia are much like the western ones, meaning Narnia can still perform well in this tack. Stock saddles are designed for comfort to the rider on long rides, which is also the purpose of western tack.
What Are You Going To Do With Her?: To start off, I would have to make Narnia her own page on my CWHR horses thread. Then, I would do art of her. I do not own any campdrafting adoptable at the moment, so the opportunity to draw in that style would be great, because it is a sport I am interested in trying out. I love making fan art of my horses, and the idea of being able to build and develop a character of your own is something I love to do.

Other: Please watch this video if you wish to see how campdrafting works. Campdrafing is a dream of mine, because it is so exhilarating and exciting. To own this beautiful girl would be amazing because I would cherish her as my one and only amazing campdraft horse.
