Full size horseshoe horse sculptures - how good are these?

[Tiddlypom]

Recently arrived at a local competition centre. Aren't these just fabulous? Actually I'm not sure if they are technically sculptures, but whatever they are, they are awesome. ETA Yes, they are sculptures.

No visible dip behind the withers, either .

My farrier gives all his old shoes to a guy that makes sculptures out of them.

Aren't they fabulous!
There was one very similar on display at GYS in July although the legs were made with horseshoes the other way, so that the legs looked articulated. I was fascinated by them.

Millie will be terrified of those when she meets them!

I couldn't look at them for long... too many anatomical mistakes.

At the stud where I bought Arabi they had bronze statues all over the yard, they had a fantastic picture of one of there stallions rearing up in front of the rearing bronze statue it was amazing, apparently this particular stallion would go nuts everytime he went near one of them and they just happened to get a picture of it.
