Name: Raider aka Breakup In A Small Town by Sam Hunt

Breed: American Paint

Color: Chestnut Overo

Special Run: SM Club model

Significance: First on the mold

Raider found his way to me mostly safe and sound, just a wonky back leg leaning under him but nothing major. For my first time owning this mold, he's a chunky one but well produced and sculpted. Not one of my new favorite molds but one I definitely like more than others, he's like a perfect balance of realistic and slightly cartoonist it adds great character to him. Seeing this horse in a new modern and glossy run is amazing except his coloring isn't exactly like the pictures... he's still a chestnut overo but with purple/red metallic interference that throws me off. I mean this way he's not too similar to previous glossy chestnut pintos in the Club but why this? Thankful mine is more subtle but I'm still not a huge fan unfortunately.

Ok so announcement time... I'm sorry these last two updates took *forever* to get up, I've been so busy because my now 💖fiance💖 proposed to me August 1st, I FINALLY got a job (8hr days 4 days a week), and I just turned 20 on Sept 13! Also both my parents and younger sister got covid, I didn't thankfully. They all have recovered well with seemingly no long lasting effects as of now. Also part of the reason for not updating this is because I'm not really motivated to keep it up due to hardly any interest/interaction anymore so I'm thinking of closing this collection tour at the end of the year unless things pick up again or else I'm just doing this for myself lol If you've still been following along thank you very much! For anyone who cares, how long have you been following my collection?
