I think I have to share this with my watchers xD
1. I really haaaaaaaaate hate hate the breed name.
At the beginning I thougt something simple would be nice - fantasy names quenches most people. If you read "Warmblood" most people think "Oh, I could need a WB in my stable - they can be used for every discipline" So I thought more people will be interested in my breed if I call them "Warmblood". But now I really don´t like the name, it doesn´t fit to the breed anymore and I think it´s so boring xD
But renaming a breed with over 500 registered horses is too difficult, I think.
2. Never thought...
... that this breed will be loved that much... I mean, come on, it´s a boring body build (but I love this heavy feathered body type, don´t get me wrong) and at the beginning the available colors and mutations were a bit boring. That´s the reason why I had added so many different mutations to the breed - some are similar or nearly the same to existing breeds, I quess. But luckily there are some cool genetics which are unique (I really love the Cheshire and Python Dun, Elves lacing, Penguin Face or Pictus and many more). But again: I never thought that there will be over 500 beautiful pixel horses <3
3. mhn ok...
... many of them weren´t HWBs at the beginning... Yes... they were transformed from other breeds, I´d created. I really love to design breeds, but I didn´t had enough time to take care for all of them. So I fused many little breeds to HWB (Chimeric Warmblood, Saalese, Seebener Sport Horse, Baltikaner, Kataraner, Pennaceous Equine, Hundertwasser Equine, FregateEquine, Bailador, Baie Fino, Guppy Friesian, Klöört Frees, Pellegrino, Swiss Chocolate Hackney, Wittenberger) gosh..that are many breeds xD.
Thats the reason HWB has so many different mutations - some of these breeds were transformed to HWBs with Potions (Pellegrino, Fregatequine, Hundertwasser Equine). Yeah I think around 100 - 200 horses are former other breeds designed by me
There is only another type of HWB - The Saalese, because I really loved the Saalese as breed, I´d created and I couldn´t delete my beloved Saalese breed - so I decided to transform them to a subbreed
A new type with Halloween theme was added later - I should stop playing the game "Super emo alpaca" it inspired me to this funny bullsh*t
4. I never wanted...
unnatural colors and strang really unnatural markings. At the beginning I only wanted existing ground colors and some mutations which looked really natural like... but umn... yeah, more and more unnatural markings and colors found their way into this breed
5. Potions...
only exist, because I need to stop creating fantasy breeds xD
So every time I have a strange fantasy breed idea - whoup - a new potion is created
6. why I created this breed?
Am I allowed to say it out loud? I really hate to use someone elses´ breed
The time I created the HWB Nordanner breed grow up - but I really didn´t wanted to take part of this society (I don´t know why, I don´t like to follow others rules or something like that
) So I decided to create my own baroque-heavy warmblood breed. They aren´t that famous like Nordanner, I know. But I hope we will grow more and more in future. I try to give my best to make them attractive to other people.
Sooo these were 6 little secrets of the HWB world... Did I told you too much?
