You can tell I'm super delusional in the morning bc I woke up convinced that I had found the bones for the stirrups on the sims rig in a dream i had last night and its taken me a solid five minutes to realise that it didn't actually happen :'D

Anyway gm i think a long term project might be to work on a whole horse fix (reins and stirrups) bc man i really just wanna make a cc set everyones having so much fun and i locked myself in the basement to dig through files :(

Best Dad Ever

Lando is the best girl dad. When his little girl wants to ride horses, he makes it happen

For @nurse-buckley for studying

Lando didn't have many regrets in life. He didn't regret karting from a young age, he didn't regret joining McLaren. He didn't regret getting married young or having a child either.

Actually, those last two were the best decisions of his life.

What he did regret was letting his four year old meet his sisters horses.

Lola fell in love. Lando hoped that she'd find Flo's huge horses terrifying and scary. But she loved them. She really really loved them. She giggled as the horse took the treat from her hand. Auntie flow had shown her exactly how to do it

She didn't get to ride Flo's horses. They were top show jumpers, Flo didn't want to put her niece at risk like that. Something Lando was incredibly grateful for.

But soon, Lando was strapping her into her car seat and driving her home. "Papa," she began as she looked out of the window, at the horses in the passing fields. "Can I start riding ponies?"

Lando should have seen it coming. It shouldn't have been a surprise that Lola had found love for those great big beasts in the same way his sister had. "Let me speak to your mother, yeah Lols?"

"Okay daddy."

Her mother didn't need a lot of convincing. "Hell yes she can go riding!" Y/N insisted. "I always wanted to as a girl but I never could," she said as she cuddled up to her husband.

"But, what if she realises she want to do karting like her father?" He pouted.

She held his hand to her lips and kissed the back of it. "I promise, Lan. The next one we have you can introduce to karting."

Lando really liked the sound of that.

***

For Lolas first riding lesson, Lando was there, watching. He arranged it for a date he wasn't at a race and held his wife's hand as he watched. He was so incredibly nervous. Even if all Lola had to do was sit there, he was still terrified.

Soon she was riding every week. Lando desperately wanted to be at every lesson, but, before he knew it, he was at a race.

He wasn't there for the first time she trotted. "Please video it, baby," he said to his wife as they spoke on the phone.

She did just that, recording as she sat tall, the little pony beneath her trotting. Lando watched the video again and again, showing it to anybody that would watch.

He was there for her first lesson off the lead rope. He couldn't stop the smile on his face as she steered the small grey pony over the set of poles.

Lola kept up her riding lessons for a year. Lando attended as many as he could.

When that year of riding lessons was up,y Lando was on a mission to do something big.

It arrived at his location in the mid morning. As soon as it did, Lando put his phone to his ear. "Baby, bring Lola to the yard," he said.

Without questioning him, she got Lola into her riding boots, strapped her into the car and set off for the stables.

"Where's daddy?" Lola asked as they drove.

"He's gonna meet us there, sweety," Y/N said as she drove.

Lola frowned. "Why?"

"I don't know, Lol's."

As soon as Lola was out of the car, she was running towards her father. "What's going on, Daddy?" She asked.

Taking her hand, Lando walked Lola towards the barn. "I got you something, Lol's, " she said.

Lola gasped when Lando pointed to a stable. In that stable was a black pony, wearing a pink headcollar. "Lola, baby, I'd like you to meet Raven," said Lando. "He's your new pony."

Lola let out a little, quiet scream. "Really, daddy?! He's all mine?"

"He is, baby."

Lola through her arms around her father, squeezing him as tight as she could.

Simple Snaffle Bridle

I needed an actual bridle so bad 😭 why did EA give our pretty English ponies only a headcollar?

So here's a basic snaffle bridle based off EA's headcollar. It's a little rough/low poly, but it's a start! Hopefully I'll make a V2 soon with better textures.

Details:

    - 8 swatches (4 colours with both gold and silver metalwear)

    - For adult/elder horses

    - Low-poly + all LODs

    - Requires Horse Ranch DLC

Known Issues:

 - Reins still attach at their original point... it ALMOST lines up, but I haven't figured out how to move the attachment point to make it perfect

    - There's one particular face horses pull in CAS that deforms the buckles on the side (??? why???), but I didn't see any weird stretching in game during my testing, even when horses were opening their mouths etc

The bounty hunter knew: The Galra's headprice was far beyond anything they'd ever seen from the miserly imperium. Their prize shook off the stun blast faster than a creature his size should have. He wanted to struggle but chose against it quickly, so hanging by his arms, prosthetic inactive, must hurt effectively.

He watched. Even though the struts immobilized his head. They said he was vicious, and that he could wait so calm was unnerving. He must know where he was headed. Where had all that fight gone?

The bounty hunter didn't know: Shiro didn't need to move, or speak, or even breathe to speak to Black. So they were already hotly pursued by four furious Voltron lions. Soon they'd see for themselves.

I've been so inspired by Linecrosser's whump art recently, the greyscale stuff they do looks SOOOO GOOOD. I wanted to try some of that kind of color work too.

Have you tried headcollars for either of your dogs? If you aren't comfortable with a slip collar for Egon, a headcollar might be just the thing for him. They can't get out of them when properly adjusted, and it doesn't pull on their necks. Gentle Leader and Halti are the usual brands where I am.

See I'm not convinced a head halter is any safer than the slip lead. I'd figure the potential for neck injury is higher on a headcollar than it is on a slip. People also tend to wrongfully assume a headcollar is a muzzle and the dog is scary, and a couple neighbors are already scared of Egon (for no reason other than he's a black dog and sort of looks like a pitbull if you squint)

[Content ID: Art of four original characters for Fire Emblem Three Houses. On the left there is a woman riding a blond horse with her arms around a child in her lap. On the right there is a man with an older child held on his shoulders. They stand on a snow packed road beside a snowbank against a light blue sky with a pale sun in the upper right corner. /End ID]

Some rambling and more close-ups below the cut!

There's a lot going on here! The man on the right is Almanzor, a Blaiddyd Bastard oc (unrecognized son of Rufus Blaiddyd). It must be an early or mid spring day for him and this little family to be so inconsistent with how bundled up they are.

While Al grew up in Fhirdiad, in most post-canon settings he ends up finding his way to Gautier where he meets Peregrine and her daughters, Apolline and Huguette. This would be my justification for why he's so much more swaddled than their lighter clothing.

Peregrine was once a soldier in service to House Gautier, who left with Miklan during the theft of the Lance of Ruin. Widowed during the war, Peregrine grows into a very protective woman with regards to her children and her people. These details inspired the color palette, with Sylvain being so distinctively red and teal (and Faerghal blue).

Almanzor was a paladin during the war, and to his great shame, one of the Fhirdiad soldiers who was ousted during Cornelia's rise to power. Still he fought for the Kingdom, and would have taken pride in reconnecting with Dimitri's forces. These details informed the color of his horse, who I'm tentatively calling Buttercream, and the repurposed blue cords holding the furs around Al's feet, and the yellow fabric of Buttercream's headcollar.

This scene is: They're headed into town, primarily for business related to Peregrine's mercenary company, so Peregrine is trying to look presentable in the bluest thing she owns. Apolline has been allowed to sleep into the late morning, after being awoken early for the journey. Huguette, on Al's shoulders, is asking for something frivolous only available in town, and Al, who knows the answer is no, is telling her to, "Ask your mother." Huguette turns doe eyes on her mother, who is unimpressed (affectionate) with both of them.

The simplest concept that would help pet owners so much more than Cesar Millan ever did would be that forcing facilitates helplessness, not learning.

Regardless of your methodology you're not going to see your best results by walking into heel yourself, pulling your dog into a position, holding them in sit to be petted, pushing and using body blocking when trying to build impulse control, guiding them around by a headcollar, etc.

At best, you'll get a dog who has learned the inevitable and leans into it. More often, I see lazy or confused dogs who learn to only listen to outside pressure, or worse, become anxious or overaroused due to their own lack of control and autonomy.

Please, examine your training every so often to make sure the dog is the one doing the action on their own, not being actively imposed into it.

I love Mari Lwyd but, why is she the only mast beast that the internet is into? The Hooden Horses and Old Tup and Grey Horse and the whole menagerie of horses, boars, sheep, deer, cattle and other nameless horrors that pattered on snowy thresholds at midwinter and cavorted on St John's Eve in the bright evening are all close relatives of Mari in form and function - Some with rhymes and riddles, some with processions, some with a wooly bag of red ribbon guts to throw around and a whole tableaux of comrades (The young bride, the old housekeeper, the butcher's lad, the little dog...).

And a lot of them are living traditions too! Kent's Hoodeners are still out there terrorising beer festivals at midsummer, and wherever you find enough morris dancers you might get a mast beast or a hobbyhorse too. Seek them out! Let them in!

This is Stagdalene- He's a roe deer masquerading as a sheep skull, because the butcher I worked for could get me a deer head but not a sheep head (Thanks, scrapie and deadstock regulations protecting me from prion diseases!) He comes with a complicated arrangement of army surplus webbing to fasten him to my back, so that I can run and dance with him, and an over-shoulder bag full of red ribbons and stuffed organ shapes of red and purple satins which are part of the Old Tup Play which come out when he's killed and brought back to life. He also has a plaited headcollar and lead somewhere which comes on and off at different points of the dance, and assorted hats and crowns. And I love him, he's perfect for getting up to Havoc on the foggy hills at night.
