Shorten the ears, widen the chest, lengthen the forelock, round out the forearm and he will be just gorgous.

The horse I mean.

Looking good Soren.

Keep at the horses, you have the talent.

Cheers

what is a forelock?

[Roger H]

what is a forelock?

The bottom half of the leg (I think!!). Once you have mastered the horse, you can turn to the artillery drawing I suggested in another thread

The bottom half of the leg (I think!!).

It's the part of the mane that falls forward over the forehead/face.

You're thinking of the 'padlock', Roger - which is the thing you close the stable door with after the horse has bolted ...

[Roger H]

What an idiot - I had been drinking - says he pulling his forelock!! I was thinking of fetlock!!!

Soren,

You never cease to amaze. Its fantastic.

Oi - you lot, what's the go with all these locks. Padlocks, fetlocks, forelocks. Next thing we'll have Matlock doing an investigation.

Cheers Andy.

Ah, Matlock on a bike, - give me a horse any day.

Remember.

For the want of a nail, the shoe was lost,

for the want of the shoe, the horse was lost,

for the want of the horse, the battle was lost,

for the want of the battle, the kingdom was lost,

all for the want of a horseshoe nail.

or something like that!

Keep at it Soren.

Look at Goodbye Old Man and Chipilly and draw on what they give,

you are on your way.

Cheers

Kim
