You have done such a beautiful job, that the color does not harm it at • all.
I am sure trying to achieve the original colors will be very difficult.
Stick with the original for your own satisfaction.

Awesome.  Very, very nice. • Thanks!

But where are the horses?  I had run through some mental exercises in • trying to
build it, but I have to admit I always started with the horses and • built
outwards.  That, and I tried to confine myself to parts I own or could • get.
I'm not much of a CAD builder.
The horses are tricky.  I tried to add them but couldn't get something • that
works.  If you used the normal minifig horses (which I can't find in • MLCAD -
Does anyone know if these exist?) then the scale would be enlarged • enough
to
require bigger arches - which don't exist.  You would have to model the
arches with normal slopes which would degrade their appearance.

The other option is to build the horses out of normal bricks.  To fit in
with the existing scale, they would have to be relatively thin and not • very
high.  I saw someone that created really small animals like this, but I
can't remember where.  Does anyone remember?

BTW, any chance of seeing it in color?
I'm looking into adding more color now.  In the pictures I have, the
sunlight fades out some of the colors.  Also, it is very difficult to • add
color into the curves without screwing up the white border (which i • think
is
necessary ).  Does anyone have suggestions?

By the way, if anyone wants the .dat file for this model, I'd be happy • to
email it.

Once again, simply stunning work. • Thanks again!
