Featured Model - 7/11/2021, Glossy Bay Test Marwari

 Hello and welcome to another edition of Featured Model, the weekly blog event where I pick a model I don't own but would like to, give some stats on it and provide commentary about it. This week's model is...the Glossy Bay Test Marwari! 















This model was a Breyerfest live auction model back in the before times, when Breyerfest was still held in person. He was a OOAK on the Marwari mold sculpted by Brigitte Eberl. His sale price was nothing to sneeze at, either - $6700. Ouch! 

His paint job is so lush, I love it. There's a lot of depth to it and the gloss just makes it pop. He's beautiful! No wonder somebody spent that much money on it. The little bit of white on his face really sets off the paint job, too. Another one to make a person wish there was a money tree in their backyard.

As for the Marwari, he's getting another Breyerfest release this year, so it's good that he's getting some more love. But where else might we see him? I wouldn't mind if he showed up as a web special - maybe as a gazelle or something? He kind of has that look, I think. He's also prancy enough to make a good Holiday Horse - maybe next year? He's had a ton of auction models, so maybe they'll give him a rest in that area for a while. Hopefully we get a new release on him soon!
