congratulations, this is not only awesome, but you have finally corrected the insanity perpetrated by (the otherwise awesome) Breyer for decades. theirs is the totally wrong pattern, esp on the head. I know,k I stood in front of a live Misty in July 1972, bought the Breyer model at the pony farm on Chincoteague where she was living at the time, and repainted my own model..
