I saw the thread and didn't have an opportunity to respond so I'm glad it's been resurrected, particularly since I'm the one who coined the phrase "roadkill pose."

My best guess is that Equimagine, apparently an American, simply got the joke. Southern Americans have a strange affection for roadkill as evidenced by the popularity of various Roadkill Cafes. I hasten to add that it's not really roadkill dished up, but, well, here, you have a peep for yourself at the jokey menu:- You Kill It, We Grill It!

It seems the joke caught on since Google tells me there's an Australian Roadkill Cafe variant You Kill It, We Grill It! - Aussie style

Although it's been many years since I've lived in the USA, my comments came from a place of real affection rather than any critique. Hopefully, Equimagine, at least perceived that much.

I find that the horses look very accurate in my opinion. =] It's funny because one of my horses actually goes over trotting poles like that. He's so funny. He doesn't like them and he kind of tip-toes through them and it looks like he's cantering.
Gotta love him though.
I love the eyes too. All-in-all, the horses are stunning.
[Some how I keep seeing the horses with wings and a long flowing mane and think Ooo pegasus!]

Thank you for your efforts. =3

Looks like a good variation of anArabian to me. Go google image Arabians. They ALL hold their head funny like that and the bridle path is always cut very long like that.

Arabian horses are excatly like that. And the way the mane stops and then goes on is simply that the horse has something called a bridle path. The bridle path is the place behind a horse's ears that is kept shaved and clean and pretty. I ride Arabians, and yes, they do look like that. It kinda irks me you're caling this a mistake of some sort, as it is perfectly correct.

On another note, I squeeled when I saw the horses, equi! You are so talented! *hugs*
