Fun Bella Sara fact! The 1st Series, while including a ghost horse, a flame horse, and the mystical ambiance that is Star, does not have any unicorns or pegasi.
I know I haven’t been posting much for cards lately, and that’s mainly because I’m at the point where the cards I’m missing (and thus not posting) are incredibly hard to come by. My collection is still growing, just at a slower pace. In the meantime, enjoy whatever horse content I happen to find between posts, and my asks are always open!
Also, if anyone is interested in buying or trading cards, I have a long, LONG list of duplicate cards.

Drew my favourite carousel horse as Sleipnir and then that turned into drawing other horses from this carousel as figures from mythology/fantasy/folklore and now it won’t feel Complete unless I figure out something for the whole outer row, but there are 12 of them SOS
Great news, looking into this lead to me learning about Hinduism’s Uchchaihshravas, who has 7 heads. I have a preliminary list now for what the rest could be but some are um.. less than ideal, so I would happily take more ideas
Wasn’t sure about doing a centaur because picking a style for the human half felt like a whole thing, but I had a Fantasia-related epiphany and now she’s one of my favourites? Also looking into physical characteristics of kelpies I found ‘backwards hooves’ which on the one hand sells it and on the other I viscerally hate.
Most & least obvious ones so far. Wanted to do one of the horses in mythology that brings the morning across the sky, but a chariot would be too big so Greek was out & beyond being bright-maned Skinfaxi doesn’t really look like anything. But maybe just attaching the sun..? And then yeah a unicorn.
Thestral! Two left, and unfortunately this is only the beginning of the uhh.. spooky section.
Ti…..kbalang……….
Last and absolute most horrific! Big “thanks I hate it” to Scotland for the nuckelavee - like no skin alone is bad enough, and then we also get the torso and the one eyeball??
Anyway that’s all 12 of the outermost horses on the carousel I grew up loving, converted into gods and monsters. Thank you for indulging this spiral.
