Don't mind me, I just love show off threads, and it's a delight to see the horses you all put time and energy into ;;)

So, I'd love to see some of your favorite foundations, whether they're powerhouses in the show barns, a lucky create, or a project horse with all of the shiny genes.

Here are my 3:

hw Beignets on Bourbon

A lot of love went into Bourbon and he reminds me of many happy things, so he's very close to the heart.

hw Augustine

Augustine was a birthday gift to myself and I love how he turned out. Very excited to start breeding platinum.

hw Styx Regale

My first project after returning from hiatus, I adore Styx so much. A gift from a very kind member of the community helped me make him perfect, so he reminds me now of that touching generosity too! (Thank you MasterstablesMS!)

MackZ · Aug 27, 2022 11:05 AM

Oh gosh, I have so many favorites! I'll try to keep this list short...

DS F Wan Galaxy Away
This guy was one of my first RGS projects, and I love how he turned out! I just love when nexus horses look like deep space.

1G RM Snowcap Halos
She was a gift during my first ever GE, and she's so gorgeous and perfect for my main breeding line!

RS F Golden Nugget
Nugget is based on my dream horse. Since the game deals in types rather than breeds, this is as close as I could make him, but I love him!

1G RM Apple Dumplin
I love Dumplin's different colored spots!

1G RM Flash of Indecision
Totally in love with snowflakes on brown!

1G RM Fiona
Fiona is so cool with the gray on only one strand! I love what it does to her spots.

RS F Champagne Taste
This guy was another GE gift, and he ticks so many boxes for me. He's got the reverse dapples, he's a patchy brindle, and his patches are high-contrast. He's so cool!

DS F Wellerman II
I just bought this guy, but he is so awesome! And he's named after one of my favorite songs.

*1G RM Lunar Landing
She's the first horse I ever saw that looked like this, and I haven't been able to replicate the look yet, but she looks like the Moon to me.

1G WW Stargazer
My first Wrong Warp horse, which is one of my favorite fantasy genes, and I love her Jellyfish markings.

Fiddler · Aug 27, 2022 11:27 AM

@mackz is indecision up for stud??
oh heck, she's a mare! nevermind

BarnRaised · Aug 27, 2022 11:46 AM

Br Marzipan Stollen

BrBreakingBread

Devoted Desire

These are my top 3, I've always loved the Marzipan Stollen HH. The second is one I'm hoping to add a few more genes to and make a stallion. The third foundi is my first real gmt stallion that carries most of my favorite genes.

MackZ · Aug 27, 2022 12:29 PM

@Fiddler - I could pull an egg from her next season if you want one.

Mensie · Aug 27, 2022 12:37 PM

@MackZ Snowcap Halos was one of the first mares I ever GMT'd. She ended up not fitting my lines so I sold her but I'm glad she found her way to you. She is so gorgeous!

My favorite ever foundation horse is this mare:

M1 Living Dead Girl

She doesn't particularly fit what I breed for now but she looks like a total zombie after some re-rolls. I'm in love with her and sad she is getting older.

boredaf · Aug 27, 2022 12:49 PM

@ mackz that nexus draft and wellerman are really nice! I also like stargazer the orange warp contrast is gorgeous.

My fav's. The mare is for sale if anyone's interested

M Niflheim Noel

M Tarnished Silver

Heartwood · Aug 27, 2022 1:35 PM

@MackZ thank you for sharing, it's awesome to see so many special horses! I love the different coloured app spots on Dumplin & Fiona, that's such a cool effect. Lunar Landing is so unique, you're right I can totally see the dapples as little craters :o

@BarnRaised they are so pretty :) I love the variety, the marzipan hh is so fun. Desire sure is loaded with exciting genes, and good luck GMTing the little one!

@Mensie oh what a nice connection! And Living Dead is so beautiful, that pink stripe in her mane and the little chimera patches of dapples are so cute :D

@boredaf what delightful fantasy horses these are! Noel is super cool, such striking colours, and Silver has such unique white markings.

Fiddler · Aug 27, 2022 1:36 PM

@mackz sure, that would be lovely

Leefe · Aug 27, 2022 1:36 PM

this my work in progress he is sure taking on a life for him self
as i keep gmt him his coat changes. and i am really interested in seeing his foals,

rs pom Pomgranate

boredaf · Aug 27, 2022 1:42 PM

@leefe ooh I love that gray shadowy bit on his hip next to the warp

Fiddler · Aug 27, 2022 1:43 PM

Fiddlers Black Rose

Fiddlers Dress Tux

my two horses here are a show of contrasts. The first mare, I got in my first full week playing the game. And she struck me as beautiful, and she still is, and she makes pretty babies.
The second is the very much awaited Satin Party dress horse, which was really my first GMT project. I was full of anticipation for at least a month waiting for the day we got those horses.

kgstable · Aug 27, 2022 2:47 PM

AH, I love seeing everyone's pretty ponies :) Here's a few of mine

This guy was an awesome gift from the latest exchange and then I finished him off with a bit of help

kG1B Hot in Your Pocket

This guy is my favorite because he was my biggest GMT project at the time, and I love that he's open for anyone to breed with :)

kG1B Cookie Dough Crunch

And this girl was actually won in a giveaway and she came out PERFECT!

r Beach Kiwi

SharayahStables · Aug 27, 2022 3:53 PM

I have so many from the past decade of playing, but here are my ones still alive! I collect the max straws and flush every season so I have a massive stockpile for the future. :x

Elerium is 33 and earning 410hbs a day!

ss Platinum Dream

And one of my several Platinum projects

AS HiddenGates
1

And that’s excluding many of my Hom mushroom/fantasy/chinchilla/platinum foundations. I have a problem lol

Fiddler · Aug 27, 2022 4:51 PM

@sharayah, your old horses can still produce????

SharayahStables · Aug 27, 2022 6:21 PM

No. But I pull the max (500) straws from them before they’re unbreedable. The mares I flush every season, so I get 8-14 eggs every season from each mare. I spend so much money on these horses so I stockpile their straws/eggs for future use. I very rarely part with my straws and eggs any more due to the risk of people breeding unevenly with my lines, so I rely heavily on my own stock. :)

Fiddler · Aug 27, 2022 7:36 PM

wow!!

WhiteValley · Aug 28, 2022 1:01 AM

Kestrel

Kestrel was the very first horse I created the day I joined the game way back in 2009. I still have some of her descendants in my barns.

WV Multiverse Spectacular

Multiverse Spectacular was the first horse that I was able to spend some real money on. I created him as a youngster so that I had time to add my favourite genes.

Those two are probably the only really special Foundations that I have.

SilverCreekFarm · Aug 28, 2022 2:44 AM

1 Prometheus KP
I will never be over this old guy from 2017, Theo <3<br />Back when boosted foundies were not overly common, and having kitM and DP on the same foundation was kind of "flash"! He was a crowd favourite every season and many of my lined horses go back to him.

1X Palladium PT MU
My favourite living foundation that I own at the moment is probably this girl, just because she has all the genes I currently love :D

annismyrph · Aug 28, 2022 6:34 AM

Wow! some of these are truly stunning ; I ve only gotten into GMT'ing recently so dont have many super "Flashy" horses but

LG XP Shattered Souls

Fiddler · Aug 28, 2022 6:59 AM

Humboldt · Aug 28, 2022 7:02 AM

LC Magellan

MackZ · Aug 28, 2022 9:34 AM

@Humboldt - Wow! Magellan is gorgeous! He looks like a watercolor painting.

boredaf · Aug 28, 2022 5:45 PM

@humboldt I second Mack stunning
@annismyrph Chocolate cupcake looks awesome so strange 0_0

Just a few of my favorites!
Just noticed all but 1 has blue eyes.

WitchwaterAcres · Aug 29, 2022 8:23 AM

This boy was archived, but I loved him so much. He was one of my first flashy GMTed studs.

1BCh Bear Valley

This boy was a Christmas GE gift that I boosted, and he was incredible. Very sad he's archived, but luckily I got some incredible foals from him that currently contribute to my lines.

1BLD Valentine

Riften was my first big GMT foundation and when I came back to the game from a break, I realized I'd been gone long enough for him and quite a few of his foals to get archived. I was able to use one of his to restart my lines, and I'm so happy I still get a little bit of Riften in them.

1BLD Riften

This boy is my current foundation stud for my liver line, and I am obsessed with him. Every time I look at him, I'm just so pleased with how he came out.

Heartwood · Aug 29, 2022 8:52 AM

I can't keep up with replying individually, but thank you all for sharing, this thread is bringing me so much joy :x It's so fun scrolling through all the special pretties!

My favs! Andvari has passed out of the game but he was a passion project and still means the world to me :x

This one's tricky, got a ton of favorites. I'll share a few though.

Jathimah DB

Heartwood · Aug 30, 2022 1:24 PM

@SilverMoon15 so many pretty chimeras, the platinum pearls are a beautiful combination, not one I see a lot of!

@Seaswell this is one of my favourite base colours in the game, really looking forward to the agouti update next month to see how they turn out :)

@HayesStable Aw they are all so pretty, I think you are one of the main people that got me interested in satin, just seeing pretty horses on the forums :D Love all of the platinums!

Starstruck2 · Aug 30, 2022 7:39 PM

This boy is my all-time favorite GMT create, he's not only beautiful, he also makes gorgeous babies

SVLD Psychedelic Cocoa 1g

I really like this mare and I need to pull some eggs and make better use of her

SVLD Extravagance 1g

This boy is the foundation of all my colorful fantasy horses, I absolutely love him

SVLD Purple Flames GIFT

This one was a big splurge and I love how he turned out

SVLD Party Animal 1g

Heartwood · Aug 31, 2022 12:03 AM

@Starstruck2 They are so pretty :D love all of the bold chimera patterns! Psychedelic is lovely with the 3 colours of patches.

Seaswell · Aug 31, 2022 3:35 AM

@Heartwood I have spent the last couple months redefining the goals of my many... too many... accounts with the update in mind. All of Ammit's wonderful events let me make them fancy, but I literally don't have a reason to make another stud this year. I can't wait to see if I like all my life choices.
