THE WINNER IS #7, the ANDALUSIAN cobra mare by CARISSA KIRKSEY
1. bay Appaloosa sporthorse with molded on tack
Artist: Elizabeth Jones
"She is a LB scale resin by “Stone Critters”. I am attaching a picture of the uncustomized model. I added a braided tail (Apoxysculpt over a very light wire – it is not as hard as I would have liked and should be treated gently), cavesson and reins (leather) It has a textured (winter) coat. I painted her with acrylics and she has glossed hooves, eyes and nostrils.

bird catcher spots"

6. chestnut Thoroughbred
Artist: Bobbie Allen
7. Andalusian cobra mare
Artist: Carissa Kirksey
"She is a 2016 CM G3 Standing Stock Mare to PRE cobra mare. She has new ears (the body's was missing ears) that are metal reinforced for strength, roached mane, & shaved & banged tail - also metal reinforced. Her neck was heated & moved, so there is still the strength of the original plastic there. She was painted with oil & acrylic, sealed with many layers of dull coat, & glossed with clear acrylic finish. She has details such as hairing around her star & heel, shaded hooves, chestnuts, hot brand on her right hip, detailed eyes, & dapples. She is signed & dated on the belly. She comes with a cobra bell collar, which is not attached to her but is not made nor meant to be removed either. She is LSQ IMO; I wouldn't hesitate to show her that's for sure!"
