Personality: Since he was a colt he has always been boisterous and abit of of handful to keep up with. He always seems to be full of tricks and quirks, but this stud only means well. He's well mannered, but his playfulness sometimes gets the best of him. From tipping over his waterbucket, to letting himself out of his stall, he always finds ways to keep stable hands busy.

History: Du Shane was taken from his mother early into his sixth month. He was small, lean, and undesirable, but his mother didn't have much to offer to him, being starved of nutrients herself. He was loaded into a truck, crammed with other colts and filles, their cries for their mothers echoing against the steal walls, on his way to the slaughter yard. Thanks to a rescue team, his life was prolonged for just abit longer. His picture was taken and posted, where interest in him had soon been taken up.
Within a matter of a few weeks, he was loaded into a horse trailer and was sent off to his final home, where he grew, finding, and never letting go of, the colt inside of him.



Artist's note: Du Shane is obviously based off my mom's real gelding, Du Shane, so she has been the one who gave me the rules on his breeding. Steal and be sorry. :]
Another piece of prey to my scanner. Not overly happy with this picture, but I needed another stud.
Time: 4 Hours
Tools: Staedtler pigment liners, Prisma color, white watercolor pencil
Reference: Various stock of my own.

Just because we can, doesn't mean we should.

Curiosity killed the cat, but it had one hell of an adventure along the way
