[FT] Coat + Background Gallery

With so many special combinations of horse coat + background possible, it would be nice to share and see what everyone has come up with!

Here you are free to show off links and/or images to your own horses with a special coat + Helios Ray combination. When linking to your horse, be sure to use the public link so that people can see it, and not your private breeding farm link!

You may also use this space to request help in searching for creations; for instance if you are looking for a coat/background with certain characteristics, colours, or to fit a certain theme and would like to ask for suggestions.

Special coats can include Golden Apple, Bewitched Pumpkin, 5th Element, Seal of the Apocalypse, Parade Apples, Wanderer's Spirit, Hiking Journals, among any other coat customisation item. Divines & Special Horses with backgrounds can also be shared.

Please note regular forum rules still apply, which includes no advertising of any kind. This is simply a place to share and discover coats, backgrounds and creations.

Have fun! default smiley (h)

That is a lovely combination default smiley ^)

I wanted to share this one that I chose recently, it's the happiest I've felt in a long time when choosing out a GA and Ray to match: https://www.howrse.co.uk/elevage/fiche/?id=9157598

This retired GA coat for unis is just really pretty (and quite 'delicate')

first one is for the double sided medallion (needs the 'dark side' robot coat to be effectivedefault smiley :p)

https://www.howrse.co.uk/elevage/fiche/?id=5504130

2nd one is a GA coat with slightly more apocalyptic vibes. I just love the background though, simple, but effectivedefault smiley ^)

finally, slightly 'brighter' Viking-esque pony

Must say I love your choice of background. I have the same unicorn coat linked here but am inclined to change it after seeing yours!

Another fairly recent one - https://www.howrse.co.uk/elevage/fiche/?id=9154491
Admittedly I only realised the other day that some of the Ow's Helios Rays are animated, and thought it matched very nicely with the 'Rose' parade apple coat. default smiley ^)

It doesn't mention them in the OP, are divines with added backgrounds acceptable for sharing too?

Some of my pastry foal combinations

Pain des Morts
https://www.howrse.co.uk/elevage/fiche/?id=9097556

This background makes me chuckle every time I see the green ghost's eyes following the treat bag. I also wonder whether the wolf pup has eaten too many treats from how the headless skeleton is reacting... default smiley (8)

Ooh that one's lovely, I like the way she looks like she's wanting to join those birds but is a little shy.

I like The Winter Walker too, she gives me the sense of venturing into the unknown with her lantern.


Eve was partially inspired by Christmas feeling like it's officially over by the New Year, so when I found that coat I went looking for a bleak background to go with it that also showed the lights off, then realised while I was messing around with the animations that those fireworks worked with it too so it ended up a little more optimistic than I originally planned. Originally it was supposed to be quite solemn, he's taking the decorations down early, but then the New Year fireworks started and he's paused to look towards the future.

Some inspired by my favourite book series

Fortuona
https://www.howrse.co.uk/elevage/fiche/?id=3580757

Someshta
https://www.howrse.co.uk/elevage/fiche/?id=8709041

Machin Shin
https://www.howrse.co.uk/elevage/fiche/?id=2090532

Nynaeve
https://www.howrse.co.uk/elevage/fiche/?id=8990211


And a random divine

Frost
https://www.howrse.co.uk/elevage/fiche/?id=6447467

I hadn't thought about how Frost's public page freezes over when I added the Ray, so I'm quite pleased that the background works well with both frosted and defrosted versions.
