Um.. Penguins normally live in the arctic....

Nat, sorry but you won't get to see Up and Away unless I get a YouTube.....


Here it's about 0 degrees and we have about one foot of snow, with about 1-2 inches being fresh from yesterday.
By Retired breeder, 15th February 2015 18:56:44
Hopefully you will get one soon!

Wow, that sucks. That's a lot of snow
I live in wisconsin and I don't know how cold it is since I havn't left the house since Friday. Penguin do you still need those jumps? I can make some and ship free once I get some more popsicle sticks. Jumps are another thing I'm going to be making for my tack store.

Lucky! The wind is howling right now! (Like this swirling storm inside,... Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I triiieddddd.....) no seriously. I was outside for like 2 minutes, and I was frozen...

Anyway I finished part 1 of Up and Away! About 3 minutes long, including intro, character intro, and blooper! But I need to add music to the intros, together they take1 minute, it's boring even for me to watch....

I just finished my new horse cart and very first harness!! I didn't even use a tutorial, I made the harness out of my own head and it turned out great! Oh and the other night I made my very first saddle, western, out of foam, lol. My cart is awesome, it's a hay cart with a tailgate with a latch and everything.

One sister asked to see part 1 of my movie. I knew she wouldn't like it. I told her that. She didnt like it. She said "it's about horses..." She just thinks it is weird. Honestly though I hope that NORMAL people like all of US would like it....

I'm back.

Penguin:

I used clear plastic from packaging of toys or whatever, cut it into a pond shape, swirled on a little blue paint, and then mod podged over it.

Added detail : I took two shades of green embroidery floss (thread or pulled apart yarn might work too) cut it into small bits, and blopped mod podge around the edges where I wanted it. Then just pressed it into the mod podge (glue works for this too, school, tacky, hot glue, whatever) and let it dry. Then I glued a few tiny pebbles into some of the grass. Feel free to add flowers, sand, lily pads, whatever!
Here on Aug the weather is funny one day hot another cold

Hay I need some ideas for a shleich series! If you saw my barn tour you knew the stuff I have. I still have done other stuff I can use. Oh and it is freezing here so....
By Retired breeder, 16th February 2015 01:06:23
Well I don't have plot ideas, but for props:

Grass: Green paper, Tissue Paper, or tri-fold board

Water: clear plastic painted blue, or paper/tissue paper.

Trees: dollhouse/playmobil or whatever, or try forked sticks with fake moss glued on the ends.

Barn: well, your barn.

Riders: my biggest problem... Nothing.
By Retired breeder, 16th February 2015 01:12:27
Ya it's 10 degs here and tonight into tomorrow we are going to get about 8 inches of snow...
By Retired breeder, 16th February 2015 01:17:05

Hanoverian mare (beta)
Lunisto stallion (beta's stallion)
Cream colored trained horse (member)
Safari mare brown (members mare)
Brown filly (members offspring)
Tennesse walker mare (just a mare)
White stallion (mares stallion)
By Retired breeder, 16th February 2015 01:29:20
Thanks fire the ideas?
By Retired breeder, 16th February 2015 03:06:53

Is that question mark really a "hint hint"? Or an accident?

Ok I'll try for some ideas for a plot:

Somebody kidnapped a horse. Build from there.

The wild herds are fighting, forming alliances, and having a war. Build from there.

A young stallion (colt, technically, but older) and mare from rival herds fall in love, maybe they try to run away. Build from there.

Try a mystery, like maybe somebody cheated somehow at an international show or something.

Or a love story. Maybe the stallion lives in a little stable and the mare lives in a big racing barn, and they hardly see each other.

Or a traditional murder story. Not my favorite and every body does slime thing with killing in it. I prefer non violence.
