Death By Pressing+
A 2002 Debbi LerMond Mirage resin customized by me (lengthened & straightened skull, thickened throat latch, enlarged ears, leg joints & feet; veining throughout) in the 2010's into a National Show Horse (an Arabian - Saddlebred cross). Painted bay by Aleksander Freda of Dark Pegasus Studio in 2021. Shown sweaty and clipped close on the pasterns & face. Shod by me with modified Horsing Around bismuth (front) & RDLC pewter (hind) shoes, according to the '21 shoeing regulations of the USEF Arabian, Half-Arabian and Anglo-Arabian Division. Traditional scale (1:9). The last picture shows the original skull & hooves.
As an academy level saddle seat mount in 16 & Under Walk, Trot, Canter, photographed in summer '21. I had no coat for the doll nor double bridle for the horse, so academy it was. The bridle, saddle, sports medicine boots & crop I made myself; the doll was coiffured & clad by me and my mother (thanks ma!); the saddle pad is by Silver Stallion Saddlery; the leg wraps from Ute of Lowlandranch.
As a US style Half-Arabian hunter on the rail and over crossrails. The wonderful bridle is by Albina Kozhanova; the saddle by Gut Goldbach; and the breastplate by Infiniti Custom Studio. I made the girth, saddle pad & doll's removable bootlegs; the doll was clad by my mother and coiffured by me. The jump is from Monocerus.
Information for the Pedigree Assignment hobby:
Death By Pressing+ is a 2012 National Show Horse mare, half Arabian, half Saddlebred. Bay (EeAa, gives bay, black or chestnut). Sirrush (ox, Daidarabocchi - Poupée russe, Mirok Monpelou®) - High Refractive Index (ASB, County Treasure® - pending).
Death By Pressing's sire is a Russian Arabian owned & bred by Mirror Manor Arabians who own both his parents - all very handsome horses, viewable on their pages linked above. He brings in Elite sire KUMIR® via VATICAN®; Pomeranets® via Purpur®; KNIPPEL®, Mammona®, and Elites Kapella®, Piołun®, Skrzyp®. Sire's damline brings in rare prewar Russian breeding (tail dam Balkis or.ar. 1879 exp. 1880 FRA (M. Ernest Viguerie)) via 1st class mare Sakhara®.
Death By Pressing's dam High Refractive Index is a 2005 5-gaited Saddlebred o/b KZ. Her sire is County Treasure®, tracing back to ASB greats WGCH Yorktown®, WCH Phi Slama Jama®, RWCH Rare Treasure®. High Refractive Index was lightly shown in the early noughties, placing in Breed in Fennoscandia's largest live show as well as the Swedish Nationals LS. She has since performed in Saddle seat on ABRCB and enjoyed modest photoshow success as an IPABRA point earner with her NSH offspring DbP+ & AMAHA Perf ROM colt Ezechiel Kaur. Her damside pedigree is still something I am working on - the plan is to resurrect the extinct tail damline that produced two ASHA Sporthorse Champions incl. the 2x 300-miler CH Rex Rysdyk®, and take along for the ride as many solid performing historical Saddlebreds as I can. Once DbP's damsside pedigree is all done, I will update this writeup and open her for breeding requests.
