Let me know what you think about this saddlebred line art.

ETA: Thanks to your feedback we have updated the image to be of a more extreme saddlebred type. Let me know what you think! (note the muscle lines are to help us with shaping and not final)

Ooh I love it! I’m not a saddlebred person so I do t have suggestions other than “oh how cute!” Haha. Are we maybe getting saddlebreds?

I find the back seems a little short and the rump a little pointy (from my experience with them), but it does look very nice!

It looks a little Morgan-like (short back, neck arched and not quite as swan-like as a saddleseat trained saddlebred), but that makes it seem a little more like a sport-bred saddlebred. So if you're going for one that could fit as a sport (jumping, dressage, etc) type more than saddleseat, you did pretty good!
I have noticed that even sport-bred ones have a long back, so their body if a box is drawn that has a side over their back, in front of front leg, behind back leg, and the ground, it's either perfectly square or long rectangular. So that would be one thing I might suggest as a change.

Yes, we are going for a much more all-around old-school type horse than the very extreme type saddle seat ones. Thanks for the great feedback.

Love that we may be able to see that second back leg to see them all stacked. :-)

Yes, I love seeing all four legs. I love that feature on the current foals we have and it's a little sad to miss that last leg on the adults for the markings!

I’d say definitely more Morgan than saddlebred but lovely old school saddleseat style.

I'm not that well versed on horse type, but I find this one very handsome. And like other members, I love being able to see all 4 feet

It looks quite a lot like my ranch bred saddlebred mare I used to have. She was bred for working cattle on a ranch. She did pretty decent in cross country as well.

Updated line art based on your feedback from all 3 servers. I have hidden the prior line art so as not to impact your impression of this one.

(note the muscle lines are to help us with shaping and not final)

Also please note, that while we are taking feedback on this, we will not be making any major changes at this point.

I love it! I’d almost consider a larger/longer hoof to match the trim generally given saddlebreds but that’s my only mild critique.

BlueValley · May 1, 2023 7:50 AM

Looks awesome!

silverborn · May 1, 2023 11:00 AM

Definitely looks more saddlebred than Morgan now!

VenemousGiant · May 1, 2023 11:11 AM

This is much more recognizably saddlebred to me! Absolutely gorgeous

RKO · Jun 6, 2023 7:19 AM

Yes it looks more like an ASB now and I love seeing all four legs too. I know this is a bit late for a question but will these models be added for all players or just for the upgrade players?
