I like that a great deal, I hope it gets made. It is really good how it relates to past art / horses but is also rather modern too.

I like Odin's 8-legged horse by the railway here. But it's a bit smaller. Should have been really big too!

A white horse is a great idea, but that one is 'orrible IMHO. Like it says in the article "like the realistic model horses you can buy in toy shops" ..... so it really grates. The Wednesbury one is great. Or maybe one that evokes the Uffington one.

This originaly was going to be built on the Alvecote Mound (Pooley pit slag heap) next to the M42 in wawickshire
