The CollectA Holsteiner Stallion Bay measures: 5.6" L x 4.5" T.
CollectA Holsteiner Stallion model has a captivating, striking presence. The deep, rich bay coat is painted with a level of realism that makes it seem as though the stallion might come to life at any moment. The meticulous shading and blending of colors give depth to the figure, and the subtle nuances of the coat's texture, complete with fine wrinkles and fur, further add to its authenticity.
The sculpted face and ears of the stallion show an expression of curiosity captured in the eyes, along with the delicate detailing of the muzzle and nostrils. The mane cascades down the stallion's neck in a way that suggests a gentle breeze, while the tail, with its elegant waves, adds a dynamic touch to the overall composition. CollectA has managed to encapsulate the untamed beauty of these features with astonishing precision.
